Gottem!!! Malcolm will do the talking and I'll be the one hanging off the cliff. I've figured out how to use chairs, brown sheet and fake plants to make cliff edge for me to hide behind. Should be good I reckon!

Love his take of Deja Vu and are Blackpool illuminations real ....classic pommy humour. The good old English cup of tea the panacea for all that ails you unless you are hanging off a cliff reminded me of Frank Spencer.
A very funny 14 minutes well worth watching
Interesting that he read/referred throughout his performance and IMO it took nothing away from it.

G'day Kym,
Have you seen Les Barker live. He is absolutely a scream. I laughed so much I had cramps in my cheeks. Thanks for asking about him. I need a good laugh at the moment. He has one called "Is Poetry Better Than Sex?". This was a topic of the National Debate at the NFF in about 2006 (?) You should google it.
