Hi diarrhoea, diary mix up this is one of yours.

It's not too bad, but I think bits are a bit weak

Thanks it was a cheery bit of nonsense that came to me in a flash, definitely weak in places.

Formatting soots! It was very hard to follow and it kinda loses pace when I'm forced to reread lines.

It's not bad but I don't think you're in any danger of anyone stooling your idea.

GRAMS? I thought that died out with the Goon Show?

GRAMS? I thought that died out with the Goon Show?

You thought wrong.

Took me till the end of the sketch to get it. I actually quite like the concept, a rewrite and it'd make a good TV sketch.
