I'm sitting opposite Five Guys and Claire's Accessories, both of which were also rejected names for the band Steps.

I am one of stand-up's great storytellers. No matter the gig, I will always come up with a convincing story about why the audience didn't warm to me.

Jaws is such a great film because it taps into that primal human fear of our beach resorts becoming unprofitable.

Charles Bukowski drank a pint of whisky and two six packs of beer every night while he was writing Post Office. Tonight I drank a Coors Light and wrote a blog about how to avoid phishing scams. Just a couple of tortured souls spilling our guts on the page.

Lately I've found myself very drawn to shops like Mountain Warehouse and Millets. I think it's an economic thing. There was a time when you'd turn 30 and start to think about buying a house. Now you turn 30 and start to think 'How can I prepare myself for being outdoors?'

I want to be the voice of a generation. I've chosen the generation that came of age at the end of the 18th century. 'The king is mad and my wig is poisoning me!'

I never know when to end a sentence with 'baby'. Sometimes it's charming e.g. 'That's just how I roll, baby', but sometimes it's offensive e.g. 'I don't think the two of you should've had a baby'.

My neighbours' cat is not long for this world. It's a normal length for this world. I measured it when my neighbours were on holiday.

I like planking because you stay in one position and the exercise just sort of happens. It's the leaving dishes to soak of strength training.

I thought I would always be a lone wolf, but things change as you get older. These days I'm more of a lone squirrel.

I'm sick of getting woken up at 6am by the bin men. I just want a nice sleep but they always insist that I get out of the bin before they collect it.
