He seems quite nice. Works in advertising.

And who doesn't want to know where the nearest Golf Sale is?

I work in advertising.....baby

(ok currently working on a campaign about ninja fruit smoothies and jokes about underfloor heating, but well it's advertising stuff isnt it)

In the end, we're going for ice-cream a stroll round Regent's Park. Weather dependent. *eyes rain outside flat with distaste*.

That should go well providing he doesn't try to serenade you with 'Just One Cornetto'

Sooty, as much as I love your little re imagining of my post - I've deleted the original due to possible risk of identifying him. Do you mind doing likewise? Thank you my love.

I did think you were being a bit too specific!

Yep. I really don't fancy a disciplinary hearing with members of the BCG being called as witnesses.

*waits for sooty to sketch that out*

Leevil why are you lying naked on my sofa with a red wig on?

Where's an iceberg when you really need one?

Even 50 shades of Grey would have drawn the line at that!

nb Jenny have you seen there's a bunch of sitcom writing courses coming up in London; the Chris Head one, the Sitcom trials one and I think a Mark Blake one.

Could be interesting?

\(nb not attempting to stalk you, doing the half script course at Birkbeck which you can only do if you've done one of their other screen writing courses)

Stalk me all you wish poppet.

I am doing the Screenwriting Stage 2 at City Lit (well I will be if I can actually get round to signing up.)

Considered Birkbeck, but they are so expensive.

I like the City Lit one as it seems to be more of a structured screenwriters writing workshop. Lots of exercises, then feedback from everyone.

I feel a bit coursed out at the moment. There isn't much more for me to learn, I just need to write. And re-write. (Sorry, that sounds arrogant - what I mean is, there isn't much more I need to be taught, I need to learn just by writing now.)

Although - must say I did the Sitcom Mission one, and it was really fun. Still in touch with a lot of the people I met on that course.

City lit awesome, I did both I think Birkbeck edges it (even if my mum teaches at City). They used to do some really good courses with Marc Blake, but I'd seriously reccomend a dedicated sitcom course.

I have my disertation for my screen writing course around in critique somewhere, it got a distinction doncha know.

Just read you did the sitcom mission one, shut my fool mouth then!

If you get a chance the one day one with Dave Cohen is probably the best follow up.
