So this winter, I'm going to be stepping into a new pair of boots - Santa's, to be precise! 🎅🎄🎁

At Audley End Miniature Railway for their Christmas Special event. It looks like it's going to be the most magical Christmas fun - I can't wait to get started! 🤩

Yes I'm having a great time with Halloweeny things, thanks. To demonstrate, here is a photo of me screaming at my wife. 😄

Yesterday my CoS players surprised me with some end of campaign gifts - delivered in person by one of them. So grateful, and can't wait to roll these dice properly with an appropriately grim campaign starting up soon... 😈

Hello blondie 🤪

(Before anyone asks. It's a deliberately blunt style for a character!)
A photo of Aaron, he has bright blonde hair, long on top, shaved at the sides and a thick brown beard. It looks silly but it's for a character.

Today is like Christmas Eve for me, because tomorrow is the start of six days performing as part of Fairground Frights at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach.

I'm back as John Doe - the hillbilly rat hunter, and I've got some exciting new upgrades to his repertoire this year.

Finally getting to see this one! Murder at Midnight by @originaltheatre.bsky.social 😀 #Comedy #Thriller #MurderAtMidnight

Just realised I hadn't shared this here.
Full copy is in the alt text.
Lately I've been so humbled and grateful to receive a lot of really positive comments and feedback from friends/audiences on my efforts in Stand Up Comedy, it's really affirming to me that I've made the right choice to pursue comedy more actively. Monday night's online gig went so brilliantly, and I had a lovely message from the organisers to say they want me to be a headliner with them in the future - I'm very proud to have reached that level in their view already. Plus, due to them keeping details under wraps (understandably) I was unexpectedly sharing the lineup with one of my favourite professional comedians - Mark Watson! I love making people laugh, I love people making me laugh - it is my life and I'm glad to be able to make a little bit of money from it here and there too. The me from 10 years ago wouldn't have had the means or the motivation to do this, but I'm pleased to have found my calling with it and be embracing my passion in such an active way. I'm also grateful for the people who enable me to pursue my goals like this, and to everyone who has worked with me along the way. Insert Laughter Here have some exciting new projects in the works (details coming soon) and one last show in 2025 in November. Our 2026 is already shaping up brilliantly with some further reaching venues, and we'll be aiming to be back at some fringe festivals over the summer again too. I have a few other performing engagements of my own in the closing months of the year, not directly comedy for some of them, but my improvisation chops will come in particularly handy. To everyone who has said a nice thing, I'm so grateful for you. To everyone who laughs, you help bring joy to my heart. X

Last night's office: the North Norfolk Railway for a murder mystery.

Meet John Makepeace, a medical sales rep from New York, with a hideous hairdo and surprisingly alright fashion sense.

He learned the truth behind a murder, but unfortunately got himself murdered for it.

Great fun!

I discovered my shirt had a superpower so I pestered the venue to give me a blackout cue so I could demonstrate... 😄

Recorded at London's Museum of Comedy at my heat of Leicester Square Theatre's New Comedian of the Year 2025 competition. Great fun!

A lovely time with gig #8 - I actually had to cut a whole section out because the audience participation was going so well, including some quite profound discussion and learning around eggs! 😆

Thanks to Hooma Comedy for such a great night! 👌

Didn't make the top three, but I did get to see 11 other excellent comedians doing their thing, and enjoy the lovely venue atmosphere again for a bit.

(🤞🏻 for the wild card chance...)

Plus I got to debut my new T-shirt which glows in the dark! 🤩 I didn't know that until this morning lol.

Catching the last train. Ish.
A moody black and white (blueish tint) photo of a train arriving at a platform. The curve of the lines from the rails and the edge of the platform lead towards the bright, flaring headlights of the train in the back corner of the image. There aren’t any people visible. Really, it’s post processing and the title making this image seem more than just its composition, it was taken at 8.15pm and the station was quite busy but I managed to remove all of the people from view with such an extreme off centre angle of the photo.

Tomorrow!! 🤩
I’m rather pleased that it’s quite a familiar venue to me, one fewer thing to worry about…

Guess who is back on the roads again? Meeeee!!

Got myself a lovely new* Corsa, in red this time, oooo… so I’m able to be out and about and going wherever the whim takes me again, hopefully a lot more comedy gigs etc.

Wheeee!! 🤩
A shiny red corsa.

People tell me that I have a face for radio, so...

I’m joining RWSFM (103.3) as a volunteer trainee presenter. It doesn’t guarantee I’ll get to the point of going live on air, but it feels nice to share as an achievement in itself for now.

Watch these airwaves for more details in coming months! 🤩

What idiot managed to get a horrendous sunburn in late September??

😭

I have been trying to buy fewer dice, lately. No, really! But when I saw these volcanic/magma/scorched effect ones in my favourite FLGS - i just had to have them.

(BlueSky is shit for threads but please do read on…!)
