Maybe we read the same Independent article about the change in the law about mediums etc ? But it happens a lot I think. Quite a few of the ideas that me and my writing partner brainstormed on the way back from going to watch the show actually turned up in future shows (not written by us sadly). Either that means we're pedestrian and unoriginal, or alternatively that we are highly attuned to the needs of the marketplace...

I do read the Independent, but missed that article. I heard about it on the telly though, but I didn't have it in mind when I wrote the piece!
Maybe even more people submitted a similar thing if it's topical.

Well, the bum-bum bad news that I'm not even close to the top 40 for 'Comedy College' has been somewhat dampened by the fact that one of my sketches in on Tilt tonight! Woohoo! Finally after five weeks of trying
Also have a sketch on BBC Radio Scotland's Grrr! tomorrow evening so two in two days is not too bad.
Wish I could update my writing CV. (Not that that would fix 10 pages of shitcom I obviously sent in though.)
Happy thoughts, you miserable bastard...

Woo!
Which sketch is it? So we can listen out and JUDGE you.

I'll tell you tomorrow, so you can all think it's shit and laugh and then I do that sort of embarrassed 'Erm, that was mine actually...'
TBH you'll probably guess mine. Aaron should like it -- that's the only clue you're getting.
