Bad day for toilets

Started the day in a bad mood after last night's karate lesson. Carman, who normally takes the class, decided to be ill leaving me to organise a lesson plan. Being a sempai (teacher's assistant) has its pitfalls even though I don't have to pay. A couple of things pissed me off about the class. First, the short notice to do the lesson plus my crap confidence in teaching. Secondly, another sempai interupting me whilst I try giving out directions. This got to a point when I lost my rag and told him to stop pissing me off and shut up under hushed breath. I'm not quite sure the class heard me but about two parents of karate students standing right near us did. Felt crap afterwards but must have done the trick as he admitted giving it verbal and bought me a drink afterwards.

Back to today, as well as trying to cheer myself up reminding myself what I've got to look forward to (Goldfrapp this Thursday, Mighty Boosh next week and New York in April), I took a weird pleasure from doing an 'unflushable' at around 10:30am. Two flushes and lashings of loo paper still couldn't sink the huge log I produced. By 4:45pm it was still there half attached under the U-bend winking at the next dumping contestant looking for a lighter skinned partner.

Nice to look at, has the right type of cast but what's missing?. Still it's the only decent thing at 10pm on a Wednesday. "Talky door" - best line so far.

Aha! I see you have the FLickr badge working then? Slow news day was it? What with your entry about sending your [not so] little brown friend to the seaside!

Hyperdrive - Only watched first episode. I think it's a script it's lacking! It just isn't funny really is it?

Now "Life On Mars" That's funny - Ford Granada's crashing through empty cardboard boxes. Class!

The Mighty Boosh new live show review

Image
Thanks to my Modwolves fan club connections I managed to win exclusive tickets to see the brand new live show from the Mighty Boosh on Saturday. After our (unsuccessful) Thames boat ride we made our way over to 3 Mills TV studios in Bromley on Bow. If you don't want to know what's in the new live show then you'd best not read this as it will spoil the surprise. However if you want to know a summary of how it went then I'll say now, the performance was slightly worrying with only a week to go. There's a lot more mini-sketches and no real story compared to the previous tour. There's some great gags, some surprises but if it wasn't for their natural talent and personality the show would be slightly disappointing. Hopefully they'll put in some practice, improve the sketches that didn't quite work and maybe even come up with some new ideas. So, if you really don't want to know what happens in the show stop reading now, you have been warned. Mighty Boo...
