I am the libertine, do you like me now?

About Me

Stand Up Comedian, writer, actor and Music Video Director. I travel around the country constantly doing stand up and I've even played Dublin and Barcelona. I'm living in Finsbury Park with another comic, which is excellent as there's someone to bitch to when I get home at 2am. I'm also writing and performing sketches in Bunker Thinks He's Hunter as well as preparing for my 2nd one hour show and a play for Edinburgh 2007
Believe it or not, I'm also a children's entertainer. Watch Bad Santa, that was me a few years ago. I had a chronic hangover, the trousers ripped and the beard fell off.

My Interests

Listening to Marilyn Manson, drinking, shmokin and shaggin and comedy. Oh and I like my food too. You can get whole roast chickens up the road from me. Only £2.70. But I love cooking. You try my beef stew. It's becoming the stuff of legends and the occasional leg over.

Big Brother 8. Oh My Dayz.
