I do standup and also write all manner of things. At the moment I'm very much doing this: @murderbastard.bsky.social

If only someone had got at me about this at the time.

I think we were held back by Kerb being so slow to pay for student union gigs in that same era. By the time you've received the cheque from Loughborough and banked it, you've missed the boat for the 2005 Rich List.

Thank you!

EVEN less avocado for me this year then.

Christ I'm starting to wonder what I have to do to get into this. I really saved up this year.

This is beautiful.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. This one was a lot of effort (although I loved doing it).

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it. Also, sad to see these people blatantly copying my look to try and break into the lucrative emotionally-delicate-mothers market.

I'm going to think about 'dunk bits' for a little while.

Almost unfair really.

I'm really lucky with the people I've been able to get involved.

'Timetabling sex means it never gets forgotten' made me laugh, like you'd otherwise get to the end of the day and be like 'shit, I knew there was *something* I was meant to do'.

I was originally going to make Jack more straight-up sinister but once I'd got Rufus to do it, I settled on more 'camp villain in some black-and-white movie you're watching hungover'. The actors do dictate the tone a bit.

You'll just have to skip the gym for that period, I guess, sorry.

Shit, sorry.

Who are you addressing, who's actually in charge here? I guess God but I feel like you wouldn't speak to him that way.

Got to take the positives where we can find them.

Obviously, people are trying their best to destroy the world we live in, so if that happens I may bring forward the release of the remaining episodes.

We've reached the midpoint. Rufus Hound is among the suspicious characters in this one. Horne last week. Two week break now so, again, an optimal time to investigate it. I'm quite proud of it; it's unlike the rest of my work in certain ways. Of course, that might be good news or bad.

Yep, they're thinking 'I certainly like that, but it's too early at this stage to promise anything more'.

Great news. I was buying it even before this.

16p I believe.

Someone's just put a flyer through my parents' door offering 15p off What's On TV magazine. Intrigued by this incredibly slow-burn promotional campaign.

IT IS NOT SOONER THAN WE THINK, IT IS VERY NEARLY 10 MONTHS AWAY

That's a fair enough excuse.

Just seen someone out and about wearing a HO HO HO Santa jumper. Surprised by how weird it made me feel. I think perhaps it shouldn't be legal outside the months of December and, generously, November.

And it's not even the only production of A Christmas Carol, not even the only one in LONDON. The Christmas Carol levels are dangerously high.

There'd be plenty of takers for that.

It felt too much to ask for. People don't always like to play the hits.
