Boy, that escalated quickly... I mean, that really got out of hand fast!
One month completed!!!!It seems like hardly any time ago that I set out for these shores, the time has passed very quickly indeed. The added bonus that one month means one pay cheque, I'd like to say that I was rich so I shall "I'm rich", although it is a fabrication of all that is true.
Saying that though, it's very cheap to do anything here, cinema was a couple of quid, dinner costs the same each night and that's with eating out most of the time. It's actually cheaper to eat out that it is to bother cooking for yourself. You have the added advantage that you don't have to do any washing up as well.
Good to hear that my Mum, Barry, Julie, Anne and Mike made it back safely from their trip into the jungles of northern England, although some with slightly bruised egos........ Anne?
Hope that the dance has come to you all and you just can't, you just can't, you just can't control your feet. (By the way, that's a great excuse for getting out of jay walking)
Speak to y'all soon
Alanowski out
PS. as a little bit of a game, I'll be throwing a movie quote into the title of each post and the first one to guess wins a......erm...... well I got nothing. You could make yourself something and I'll sign it when I get home.

I had to get that in quickly. Not because I wanted the prize (which is a copy of "Economics: A Complete Course" stolen from Preston Lodge and signed by Alan Whittington), but because I'm competitive to the point of mania.
I have, without my knowledge or consent, been cast in the Edinburgh Council production of "Allo Allo". Now that I read that sentence it seems like a perfect segway from the ordinary to the surreal, but it is true.
The production is for the benefit of children in need. You may think, as I do, that a child in need of "Allo Allo" is rare indeed, but this appears to be a bigger problem than homelessness and so we're shutting down for a few days for rehearsals.
I shan't be particpating. Why? Is it because I wasn't asked? Is it because it's going to be an embarressing disaster? No, of course not. Most of my life is an embarressing disaster and I'm rarely consulted on that. I'm not particpating because I've been cast as "An Airman" and I have two lines, which I have to share with another "An Airman" and which aren't funny.
I don't even have script approval. I, who have been knocked back by some of the most prestigious comedic production companies in the world. It's not everyone who can say that.
If I'd been offered Officer Crabtree, then maybe.
And my own dressing room.
With a star on the door.
And White Lightning on ice.
