Hello!
"Well," screams the loud one with the perm from slightly creepy 70s glam rockers Slade, "Here it is, merry Christmas." He goes on to stridently claim that "everybody's having fun," though I'm not quite sure on what evidence he's basing this. We'll run with it, though, because he'd almost certainly be correct in his supposition were he to come along to the Bristol Sitcom Trials Team Christmas Meet-at-a-Pub Thing, where fun, for everybody, is very much on the agenda. In fact it's the only thing on the agenda, principally because I've lost the agenda and this is the only thing I can remember being on it.
When?
Friday 14th December, 8pm. Ish.
Where?
The White Bear, St Michael's Hill, Bristol.
What?
Witty banter; "just nipping to the loo, hold this a sec"; music we all pretend to like but really don't, except that thing by Tom Jones and the Art of Noise; Kev F; gasping in disbelief at the prices on the menu and searching for a cash point; "Christ, is it that time already? Oh go on, then, one more". That sort of thing, probably. All very casual, and happy. Plus, taxis. "Taxi", was of course a great US sitcom, which launched the career of Danny DeVito. Say, whatever happened to Danny DeVito? There you go - someone Google him and use the resultant information to launch some witty banter.
Who?
Everybody! The more the merrier!
Why?
"Look to the future now," continues the hirsute heckler from the Midlands, "it's only just begun." Which is as good a reason as any.
Hope to see you on Friday!
