Damn you.

Brilliant...
All done. I now have a new kitchen window and new back door.

As the actress said to the bishop.
Missed poor Jennie's late night laptop disaster, so was intrigued by Aaron's post at the top of the page and subsequent posts.
Especially this next bit, quoted by zooo:
Quote: Jennie @ September 23 2013, 11:56 PM BSTLet's just say, it was for a sex case and I was researching a more "avant garde" sexual practice I had never heard of before (and I have encountered a lot of crazy weirdo sex shit in my time.)
The Google search bar was on the screen.
As well as an episode of Jeremy Kyle.
The shame
Had to click back a page to discover what was really going on.
Jennie, just posted this over in the Fantasy Football thread. Should cheer you up a bit. 
Really wanted to get the ball rolling on the work for my first solo hour (target of Fringe 2015). I was hoping to do the first work in progress as a free show as part of Dave's Leicester Comedy Festival but the venue I applied to preview at hasn't got back to me with a date (they have others by the sound of it) and it's a week and a half til the listing deadline. This is very disappointing to me

Best of luck getting sorted. If you're ever performing up Yarkshire way let me know.
Am currently wondering how it can only be halfway through the day when I feel like I've been awake for a gazillion consecutive hours. Zombie need sleep.

Where abouts in Yorkshire are you?

Leeds - the bit Channel 4 would have you believe is full of burglars.

If it's part of a Festival, there must be other venues to try. Sod'em, and line up somewhere else. Their loss. 
(I'm not saying you should do this. But it is an option. So keep feeling strong.)
Ah I think you've missed my Leeds gigs for this year. I'll let you know if I book any more in. In fact. I might just go make an effort to book some more in.

Don't go out of your way on my account
Where do you normally gig in Leeds, out of interest?
My last one was Chapel Allerton I believe. I haven't been in Leeds city centre for a while I don't think. I'm not experienced enough for the biggest clubs yet, and I don't have a need for open mics at the moment, so I'm in with specific promoters and it depends where they have nights!
From this week Chip will only be eating two satsumas a day.
Bloody recession.
