I meant to get out of here, but before I do, if you’re an activist who fancies trying standup comedy to help you through the dark times, sign up for a comedy course in London justjokesnotoil.org/uk-and-e…

Who does their Edinburgh Fringe poster reveal on the last day of their run? Me, that’s who. Never let it be said that I don’t have some seriously successful self-sabotage skills.

Does cancer change you? Jane was adamant it wasn’t going to change her. Jane was an idiot. A mixture of storytelling, theatre and standup, Dead Inside is the rollercoaster ride you should get on. #edfringe2024 #TweetTheMedia #Theatre #Comedy #UnleashYourFringe @theSpaceUK

It's back! The most miserable (yet still funny) comedy show returns to Edinburgh for another year. If you missed it last year, you have 9 chances to catch it this year, starting today. Don't miss it again! thespaceuk.com/shows/2024/de…

Having a busy day at work, but enjoying the fact that I’m undoubtedly having an infinitely better day than anyone working at CrowdStrike. #MicrosoftOutage #CrowdStrike

Ahh… those heady smells of summer in London: freshly cut grass, firelighter fuel and the cindered flesh of a dead animal.

Coming to terms with a cancer diagnosis takes time. Navigating the start of chemotherapy takes energy. And on top of all the usual emotion and confusion, this poor girl had to be filmed making a public statement to reassure idiots on the internet she hasn’t been abducted.

Whenever I’m worried about AI taking over the world, I should try to complete a simple task in Excel and be instantly reassured computers are dumb.

What the hell is this? Is it supposed to look like marble? Or a crumpled up flyer from the fringe you found in your pocket at the end of the night? I thought my phone screen was cracked.

Survivor badges for Dead Inside. But which one will you choose? Last chance to catch me tomorrow @thespaceuk in Theatre 3 at Surgeon’s Hall at 13:55. #edfringe2023 #comedy #autobiographicaltheatre #edfest

Dead Inside starts today at the Edinburgh Fringe - a deeply personal and utterly truthful show about cancer, suicide and the price of pretty panties. Funny, serious, poignant. See it before it’s sold out!

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2023 starts today and I have a poster, just in time. Dead Inside is a hilarious romp through cancer treatment, suicide and the price of pants. Come see me attempt to operate on tragedy using humour and a chair at Theatre 3 of Surgeon's Hall!
