About Me

I try to make people laugh on stage. I try to make people feel awkward offstage. I own a lizard called Eddie. I study Politics at the University of Leeds. I think clubbing is scary and weird. I plan my time around Neighbours but think I know what's coming up due to some careless reading of Wikipedia. I'm going to live in Ottawa next year. I once dyed my hair black - I now see this as a mistake. I work at Sainsbury's - it provides me with material. I am reading a book about jokes at the moment.
This is me standing up and talking and being funny. I'm not arrogant but there are laughs in the video that haven't been edited in and nothing else was happening in the room at the time.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Stewart Lee and Armando Iannucci

Iraq and shizzle

I was against the war in Iraq... So vehemently, in fact, that I felt I needed a day out in London - when I also had to endure Ms Dynamite - just to demonstrate it! Now, it seems that it's pretty obv...
