Being Karted Along.

I have spent several years of my life being stalked by an Italian plumber. He was there when I had an old black and white Gameboy and again after I bought an SP Advance. And, as if that were not enough, he re-emerged when I got my Nintendo 64. Mario has starred in many of the very best games that I’ve owned.

But my favourite one of all was ‘Mario Kart 64’. What a truly brilliant game! The single player Read more

Are you bored of your job? Perhaps you fancy having a career change, but you are unsure of the right direction? If so, then here is the perfect blog for you! Welcome to the ‘Walnut Smoothie Career Personality Test’.

When I found this page I filled in the questions carefully and honestly. It did not take long for me to be given wise advice about employment… Within a few seconds I was informed that I was artistic, almost certainly gay and that I would die from some form of VD. Walnut Smoothie ten recommended that I consider a career in prostitution.

The Karaoke of Comedy’ has made me realise just how much fun it can be to make yourself look like an absolute fool… in public!

I have never had the privilege of taking part in a karaoke competition but I can imagine that it’s a really good laugh. I have just been sitting here wondering if I could rope a load of family and friends into having a go at it sometime. I’m all for making myself look like a right idiot and a lot of the time I manage to do it with only the minimal amount of effort…

Wow, I could be a natural!

I am not too sure who ‘Shrimp Rocket’ are but they sound like they are worth looking into. If their humour is as good as it appears to be then they should prove to be a very funny act.

Britain is getting fairly desperate for some decent comedy. Since the ‘golden years’, our country seems to have wandered into a bit of a ‘laughter famine’. I get really excited about groups that don’t just crack a load of jokes about hair loss treatments! Blog pages like this can help us to find out about some really talented people that we would not hear about in other places.

Why don’t you look up ‘Shrimp Rocket’ on the internet? I am certainly going to.

Working from home has been such a blessing for me. It allows me to stay home with my children and contribute to the household bills as well. However, I can say in all honesty, it was much easier working outside my home. That is because there are so many distractions when it comes to working from home. You have your children, Internet, TV, phone, mail, and many other distractions.

When you leave your home to work, you are there for one reason…to work. You are able to stay focused. Your home on the other hand, is more personal to you. It is very easy to lose your focus on your “job” and get involved with other things around you in your home. The best way to avoid distractions while working from home is by scheduling your work time. I set aside 4 to 5 hours each morning strictly for work and stick with it. That is my time to work and I do not deviate from it. This is what has actually allowed me to be successful at working from home.
One of the things I have been working on recently is I have been moderating at a beauty forum. This is great work, I get to chat about things I love and enjoy plus I get some really good beauty tips.

The London improvisation scene is exploding it seems. Whilst most industries are shrinking and consolidating as the “credit crunch” strikes down hard and fast, the improvisers of London are doing quite the oposite. In the last year the amount of impro groups has doubled, and there are more impro shows on than ever before. As the supply increases, so do the amount of people exposed to this very specific genre of performance. As more people try it out, more people are learning to love it… and thus does the industry grow not from the demand end, but infact from the supply end.

This month the London Impro Jam has moved to yet another new venue, The Miller in London Bridge and the preforming group is none other than the Grand Theft Impro. For anyone who hasn’t heard of the GTI crew where have you been, these guys have been one of the most central and generous impro groups in London since (well before me so I’m not really sure) .  They also have a show that runs every thursday night, this month they are joined by the Ian Boothby of Simpson Fame.
