When I started supporting #Brewers in 2003 they were more likely to get 100 losses than 100 wins.

Lovely night at The Comedy Sty for Jamie Stevens Quality MC work from Mick Tickner and plenty of superb acts for a great audience (even if they were a bit young for some of my references). And all done and back home by 11 o'clock (would have been earlier but the M62 was closed)

Good win for the Brewers, although they'll be disappointed with the missed extra point. #Brewers #Nfl

Another Tribfest Music Festival over and my 5th (and best) appearance. Comics agree that playing festivals can be tricky, but due to the hard work put in by Steve Rimmer RE the Comedy Marquee is a joy to do.

Bumper crowd in the Comedy Marquee to see yours truly. Have found the Tribfest Music Festival crowd to be a bit tricky previously but after a bit of a slow start, I hit my stride and got them laughing and it was a great one.

Bill Oddie, what a lovely bloke. He wrote us a letter when we started making The Young Ones, wishing us the very best, and warning us against interference from higher up. He didn’t know anyone in the cast personally. It just came out of the blue. Lovely thing to do.
