candy bar ha ha!
don’t forget it’s the launch of the candy bar comedy nights tonight down at the ever more trendy candy bar, soho. come watch comedy and be trendy with me and the fabulous mae martin x
up before dawn…
i don’t often get up before dawn, usually she gets up first and makes the tea! boom! boom! but this morning it was a pleasure to be lying in my bed at seven thirty with a hot water bottle and a cuppa (thanks dawn!) being interviewed for 5live breakfast on ‘how working unsociable ours can play havoc with your social life’. anyone who listened to it on their way to work – how do you do it??? oh the irony…
Oh we do like to be beside the seaside…
yes, really looking forward to a blustery walk along the seafront in the predicted gale force winds, but not before i’ve enjoyed an evening of song, play and hilarious improvisation with the other gorgeous short and girlie crew at the caroline of brunswick on ditchling road (see gigs page for info)

Yesterdays outing was a twelve hour round trip for a five minute performance!!) BUT it was worth it cos, I’m through….and I got the chance to see a nice lady fall off her chair during my set.
