COORRDDSS!!!

One of these:

That made me snort, Aaron.

:O
That's his wardrobe!

Nope, this is:

That is sheer class! Even Delboy would be stunned at such finery!

You haven't seen the back!

Just returned, I think it went well.

The crux seemed to be he liked it, his assistant liked it as did a few other people he asked - he also said it would work well as a sample script to get some work.

He seemed to suggest though, that because I hadn't quite done enough (or, anything, really) I wasn't quite yet sign-upable material. Yet. Though he DID say he would give me some assistance in the way of some emails addresses of people he knows and works with in the industry who could possibly help me out.

Overall I think I'm quite happy with the way it went.

Are you absolutely sure you took my 'no trousers and a beautiful woman on each arm' advice?

Sounds as though it went well.

They're obviously quite careful about who they represent, hence they didn't sign you up on the spot. But the doors been left open, so I'd certainly be happy with it.

Out of interest, did you expect to get signed up by them today?

I don't know what I expected really, I went into not knowing what to think!

He said he was looking to expand his list of writers, I just think I'll need to prove myself before he considers taking any plunge.

I think I'll need some work-on-the-telly under my belt really, but as I said, he IS going to help me out so if that goes well who knows?

Sounds alright to me - he knows who you are, he's going to bear you in mind for future projects, and he's going to put you in touch with some peeps. You can't have done that badly!

Oh no, I do think it went well.

Though there's some stuff I should have asked by just forgot to, which is really infuriating.

I've got to remember that they're one of the biggest companies in the country, I've got to be be worth it for them and maybe a few sketches and - I don't know - an episode of a kids show or whatever might not yet be worth it for them.

Though, more excitingly in London I saw James Nesbitt best known for those Yellow Pages ads AND Richard Ayoade, who was smoking a cigarette on Old Compton Street.

Woo! Go famous people!

Wow! Ayoade!!

Boo though, he smokes. :(

What's his hair doing at the moment? Big? Small?

Just normal.

No big afro.

He's cool as f**k though, I think.
