My surreal to-do list -
Categories: The odd things you end up needing this time of year. It's the same every July, as my over-ambitious plans for the Edinburgh show slowly get either trimmed back or scarily realised. So this week my jobs include:
- Find a 7yr old ginger boy, to play a young version of myself in a video
- Buy lots of packs of Cadbury's Fingers
- Find someone with a Mini-DV camcorder
- Try and fit into some leather trousers I last wore a decade ago
- Learn the ukulele
- Buy an "I am 3 today" badge/card
- Edit a medley of Christmas carols
- Buy a whistle
- Buy a suit that's about 1 or 2 sizes too big for me
- Invest in a fan that spells out words on it
- Rewrite the lyrics to Mack The Knife
- Write the lyrics for a spoof musical theatre song
- Research the history of rock music
- Watch Emmy-Lou Harris's Ten Commandments of Country Music, that I recorded last Christmas
- Email Roxette's manager
I have already this week bought two very cool hats. One is an alligator-skin (fake) cowboy style country music hat, and the other is a very comfortable trilby that I liked so much that I wore it all day at home on Monday, plus to the pub.
Some days I wish I was one of those comedians who just turns up to a stage and a microphone, talks for an hour, then goes home. Then I remember that that would mean I don't get to wear the hats...

Good luck
