Sorry I have been missing again, I have been travelling and you have no fucking idea how busy I have been but I must be disciplined and get my blog up to date. I am sitting in fancy flat in Chelsea waiting to go to Soho Theatre tonight for my opening night. I haven’t really decided what I...
I started telling husband a thing that happened and he interrupted me by saying “You have told me this before” Yes, so I had but there was more to it and I remembered some more details I wanted to add to it, but he stopped me in my stride. I like talking and he must secretly hate it,...
Well I did warn her, she is like me and cannot drink much. Last night she went out clubbing and came home all bleary eyed. This morning when I went into see her, she was lying in her bed, all sprawled out looking like a murder victim, I am sure there was white chalk lined round her. She lifted...
I went to visit my old mate Betsy today. She is as mad as shit and so funny. Not only were her old drinking pals Tom and Stumpy standing at the door but they had a barky mental dog called Biter. I brought along my laptop in the hope that I may have got logged into some free broad...
I have had people and journalists all week ask me why I tell all in my blogs. I think I have an inherent need to keep talking or I will die! Sometimes at home husband hardly speaks, he is very quiet. So I call mates and I call family and when I have exhausted them I go on stage and talk...
Sorry I have been slack of late, I don’t mean ‘slack’ in any body parts or I may have to remind you that the best quote I have ever received was from my local district nurse who when trying to give me a smear test actually said and I quote “You have a surprisingly tight vagina for a woman who...
Yes, we are in Manchester , despite trying kill each other and fighting furiously (me winning every time of course) we are in the land of ENGLAND for the WORLD CUP! Everywhere there are St.Georges flags, women in red and white bikini’s and small kids with painted faces. It’s really cool...
I was at a special community event today. I do workshops and am writer in residence for the Drug forum people here in Glasgow . My play ‘The Point of Yes’ which is about heroin flooding Glasgow and I play the two characters involved. Anyway, there are many other community group...
Yes, the luggage arrived finally. I was really worried as the whole case was ripped open, so I quickly did a check to see what was missing…do you know what was gone? My make up and my good BAFTA dress! Yes…the case thief left a brand new hard drive, an IPOD, a camera tripod and mini disc...
Oh Yes! This morning I called British Airways lost bag department and YES my wee bag is lying in a corner of Heathrow Airport ! It’s coming home! I am so happy, I have been wearing the odd clothes you buy but never wear that huddle together in a mismatched bundle at the back of my...
The open fire crackled and spat, making the atmosphere electric, as if the noise and fire displayed the tension in the room. A small firework arrangement just for us, I sat there and could feel the intense heat on my bare legs, well not really bare but my cropped trousers only reached my knees...
After the longest journey in history I am finally sitting at my home pc! We left Auckland on Wednesday the 8 th and due to passing through the International Dateline (I never even got a date!) we went a day back in time! The flights included babies that screamed like a referee’s...
It was the last night of the New Zealand Oddfellow’s International Comedy Festival, my shows had sold out here in Auckland and in Wellington , so I was so very pleased and I thought things could not get better, until the Comedy Festival Awards night. Ashley and I were there to support...
It is Saturday night here, I am about to go do my very last show at Silo Theatre. I have loved that theatre; the people are so cool and helpful. Ashley has been having the most fun a girl can have on tour with her mother! With a few exceptions of privacy issue’s….we really do need a big...
I have been over-worked, over excited and over here in NZ for too long and the net was down for a while…sorry I am late but I have an excuse! The comedy shows have been going great guns at Silo, selling out well and I am so very pleased with that, as you can imagine. Auckland is sunny...
