The idea of Ahmadinejad and whoever runs Israel these days sitting round a camp fire singing happy songs together needs to be at least tried, surely.

It conjures up a Gary Larsonesque picture of Mid-East leaders, mouths bulging with cowboy dampers, trying to sing along and do actions to “Father Abraham had many sons, many sons had Father Abraham …” before sneaking off to the river banks for a ciggy as the crickets crick and Obama snoozes after a few scout leader Special Brews. Ah yes, I can picture it all now even though I was never in the scouts. Boys together.

Or was that Camp David ?

Smile then Will!

So I went to the doctor and I says, ” Doctor, I keep thinking I’m William Shakespeare “

He said, “You’re Bard!”

I said, “No, you don’t understand , that’s the old pub landlord joke. I’m in the doctor’s and I think I’m William Shakespeare”

He said, “Really? You’re really the Bard? “

I said, “Really”

He said ” So this is a really, really, really bard joke then”

Hi

Okay, suffice to say my parents didn’t call me Midgetgems but I was eating them when I had to choose a username (not eating my parents, that would be very silly and wrong, they were dead anyway … moving on then …) I started writing comedy in 2004 and well, it stuck. New to here so bear with me and we’ll get the funny stuff up soon.

Meanwhile, do please have a listen to some of me podcasties and let me know what you think.
