Hello everyone! Wanted to introduce myself before diving head-first into discussions.
My name's Jen and I live in London. (...and I am a comedy addict...) I'm a nanny so I spend a lot of time 'laughing' at knock-knock jokes (or explaining them to confused children, which is a demoralising experience).
Not really interested in modern American comedy (just doesn't work for me) but apart from that I am a complete comedy junkie! I have pretty eclectic tastes and I love everything from Dad's Army and The Good Life to The Mighty Boosh and The IT Crowd. Really into old comedy films from 30s-60s, and I also really enjoy panel shows, radio comedy and stand up.
I love live comedy but I don't get to see as much of it as I would like to as I work late and my friends have poor taste in comedy! Managed to see a few of the big names (Minchin, Bailey, McIntyre, O'Briain etc.) and have been to see the Comedy Store Players several times, but it's hard work dragging people to see an act they've never heard of!
Anyway, this place looks fun...hopefully I'll stick around and claim a beanbag.
