When working on a new theatre I tend to buy a silly prop or costume that loosely relates to the idea and then make it my entire personality for ten years.

Something happens in the time of pressing print and then printing out a text you’ve written to learn that makes you go β€œthis is amazing” to β€œwhat the hell is this hot garbage”

Someone left a badge on a wall and I stole it. I know, finders keepers is ingrained in British culture but now I feel bad. Lost a badge? Let me know and I’ll get it home to you

I think so. I mean I can’t remember much about it apart from Matt Pearce standing me up so I had to do a show on my own.

Did you do β€œHow a
sandwich killed…”?

Also, can you do that again one day please.

Being short?
Milestones we miss
Dreams we have
Net 0?

I don’t know. Let’s find out?

Finally getting round to watching Severance and this is how i used to feel when a manager at Revs gave you a shot of their own brand of flavoured vodka number 23 and a Vk after shift.

In my effort to observe the five year anniversary of the official UK lockdown. I’m going to WFH, but not actually do any work and just recreate my β€˜creation station’ and make silly videos for my four followers on YouTube.
