A wry, awry , word-playful gallop through the vagaries of life encountering mail stealing snails, lollipop ladies, scissor happy surgeons and tripe shops en route.
Performance poet with a comedic bent (The Doctor says it's a bit like Housemaid's Knee). I also write gags; sketches; speeches; scripts; song lyrics; factual stuff (that's a technical term) for websites, newsletters and radio features especially about music; short stories and shopping lists. I am a well seasoned (peppered with puns) performer having trodden the boards as stand up/ fall down comic,improviser, actor & singer
