Hello, Little Howard here.
I just wanted to say sorry for not writing to you more Chortle.co.uk. We've been very busy doing our shows, and Big Howard has got his family with him, who stink and take up lots of his time.
Apart from doing lots of lovely shows, not a lot has happened. I could have told you about all the lovely shows we've done, but that would be boring because we would have just said "Had a really good show today. Little Howard was very funny, Big Howard was okay, and the audience liked it. A computer went wrong in one bit, but it was okay. the end". Which would be rubbish.
We've had lots of comedians come to see our show. Ross Noble brought his nieces and said that it was one of the best shows he'd seen. Daniel Kitson bought Pappy's Fun Club, who are like neices, and was very nice too. David O'Doherty came, and threw some of his own poo at the stage. No he didn't. He liked it as well. I was just trying to make it more exiting.
We have seen some very good shows. We saw Pappy's Fun Club, which is great. We didn't get to see it in Edinburgh because Big Howard was sulking about having to do his stand-up show in a tent. But we saw it out here and it was really brilliant. One of our favorite things. We met Brendan from Pappy's Fun Club at the Beach today. He is very nice. Before that we went to a huge swimming pool with Nina Conti and Stan Stanley and their little boy Arthur. All day Big Howard forgot to tell me that they'd been nominated for a Barry Award (Nina and Monk, not Nina and Arthur or Stan - although they are both very funny). If I'd known I'd have splashed her more, as we weren't nominated for anything, and she was.
Other shows we have seen that have been very good have been Kristan Shaal. She is very funny, so is her friend Kurt. They are very silly and they make us laugh.
One of the bestest things we've seen is "Simply Fancy" a show by a group called Pig Island. It's three people, on of them is called Claudia O'Doherty, who used to go out with David O'Doherty, but she was called that before they went out, and they weren't married or anything. It's very funny. It's like The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe, but it's more about fruit and Manta Rays. If it comes to edinburgh go and see it. Or if you come here, come and see it.
I think I've finished telling you things now.
Other things that are cool to do in Melbourne are go to the Melbourne Aquarium, go to Melbourne Zoo (but don't leave the Koalas til last like we did, it shuts at 5 you know!), go to The Melbourne Aquatic Centre, where you can swim and Big Howard won't go on the water-slide because everyone else were children, and he was embarrassed to cue with them all the way up he stairs). Go to Melbourne Museum and go to St Kilda (it should be called Melbourne St Kilda, like every thing else is).
Bye bye
Little Howard
PS. The other bit of news we have is that when we get to New Zealand we're going to be interviewed on Campbell Live which is a TV show there. We'll try to get the clip up as soon as we can after it happens.
