Yeah I just googled MYSELF under images (don't pretend you don't do that you losers) and one of the pictures that came up was SABRINA from BOYS BOYS BOYS! Yeah! My work here is done. BYE.
Not really. Tonight its our 3rd to last preview (in London) of A NIGHT IN SANDY HOLE. You should completely come along. Check out this address for more info www.myspace.com/sandy_hole
I'm getting nervous about Edinburgh. Not about the hurly burly and the hussle and the bussle - but about the way everyone turns crazy up there. LOOK AT MEEE! LOOK AT MEEE! Their inner-monologues cry. Even though these monologue's are inner, they come OUT-er through people's behaviour and general attitude. I'm scared. I like most people I bump into from time to time on the circuit but I dunno about spending 17 solid days with these types. Is it going to be RADA multiplied by 1 million? I hope not. I'm going to start practicing my jazz hands and speaking posh so's I fit in. All my words will be 92 syllables long.
Which brings me onto my next subject (rant). Accents. Now, my accent is ya basic (not thick) down to earth south east london accent. Alot of people I know on the circuit and in performing arts are well spoken/posh Actually the REALLY posh ones are jolly nice, its your average well spoken/home counties lot that get on my wick.
Secretly (REALLY secretly) I feel that SOME types look down on me because of the way I speak. They mimic my HILARIOUS SARF EAST LUNDUN accent and I find it quite offensive. Especially coming from people who don't come from London originally.
I considered at one point trying to kerb my London drawl and make it less regional but now I think "fuck it, if you don't like it, kiss my arse" and other such similar thoughts.
I heard a drug dealer doing MIOWS yesterday! Ah it made me say "Ah" to a drug dealer in Camden. Right in his face. He looked all taken aback. I've never done that before but the miows was so very realistic. Almost like the one's Nik Coppin does for me. He loves miowing. Ah.
If you wanna hear my gravelly tones, you can listen to me tomorrow (wednesday) between the hours of 4pm - 6pm on www.SW1RADIO.net its MY favourite!
