Greetings my people...

...and welcome to this shiny new high tech journal of mine. Before I proceed to bore and baffle you with the inner workings of my life and mind, I must give an honourable mention to Bron, my good friend and one of my staunchest allies, who designed the website from which you probably found this blog. All hail the Bronster! (the link to her blog can also be found on this page - try her, you might like her)

I imagine I will be using this facility to try out ideas and such. I'm in the process of writing my first one-man show at the moment, which if everything goes to plan will debut at the Manchester Comedy Festival 2006. I'm using the working title of "Professional Dickhead" as it's the most honest appraisal I can give of my chosen profession.

Not all my posts, therefore, will be of the, "took the dog out this morning, had muesli for breakfast", variety. Some if not most will be random musings or short comic essays as I thrash ideas about. Read, digest, enjoy. All comments welcomed. Just don't nick my gags or I'll cut you. *

This feels like progress. My own website, my own little stretch of the information superhighway. At last, I've entered the 21st century. Things are looking up.

I'm in good spirits anyway today as I've been paid just under a grand I was waiting on for what seemed like an age for some gigs I've done over the last few months. I honestly thought I was going to starve recently, but now my account is back in black again. Takeaway for tea!!!

No, I'll be good. Save some cash. Besides, Bron has promised me PANCAKES! God, I love pretending to be a Christian when it suits me...

I'm off to enjoy my feast. More posts soon. This could be the start of a beautiful freindship...

Peace x

* Just kidding. But don't nick my stuff. It's crap anyway.
