Id like to be the friendly man on the train who brightens someones day

Sorry people, no fish news for you as ive been off work this week.  Did go to win yip and bought a nice big bit of skate (ray wings), which was about £3.49 a kilo. 

Had a lovely gig at the lions den on tuesday and an even better gig at the comedy cafe on wednesday. Im going to mark Wednesdays gig as a landmark in my comedy endeavor. As, I came to terms with my own comedy and everything that was bothering me about the circuit didnt matter anymore as I came to a realization. I cant tell you what this realization is unfortunately.  Sometimes its not always best to be honest, and in this instance Im afraid you will have to take comfort in the fact that I am now at peace with all my comedy demons.

I had a lovely day out with my pal James Barber today.  It started in leicester square where ben and jerrys were giving away free ice cream. We then had the pizza hut buffet. (no one is a winner in the pizza hut buffet). Then on to the trocadero for games and fortune telling.   Then a browse around Hamleys, where I was strangely hypnotized by the marbles.

For some reason, i really wanted to talk to strangers on public transport today.  I guess it was the fact that it was my day off and I was in a good mood, but also Id love to brake the atmosphere that people create on public transport.  We are all in a close proximity and i feel that everyone pretends that everyone is just a empty vessel just traveling, and that up until this point nobody has lived a life, or experienced any events.  I glance over to a person, and think to myself that this person has experienced moments, witnessed some of the same events I have, has stories to tell.  I want to converse with them, know their tales.  I know that speaking with these people will enrich my own life and help me in understanding what the world is like.  Im 23, Im still confused.  I have a vague idea of what the world is about, but to truly experience it, I feel I need to interact with the people on it.  I dont want to travel to india or jump out of a plane, this isnt where life is for me. People interest me. People and their choices.

  1. Skate is one of the most endangered species of fish along with bluefin tuna! Best to avoid it along with wild pacific salmon. List is at http://www.scubatravel.co.uk/fisheat.html
