Greed the one deadly sin that is more prevalent than any other sin. I have to say over the last 20 years. It has gone from bad to worse. I mean bankers are on the take, oil companies are on the take, politicians are on the take. I mean it must be a shocking state of affairs before your grandparent's are saying it;s a lot tougher world that it was then when they were younger. I mean we even have people protesting outside the main churches in Scotland and England at the rise that the fat cats are getting. The rich get richer and the poor they get poorer, it's a shocking state of affairs. There are no jobs, for the young, university graduates are stuffed, spiraling debt in the Euro zone, Greece and Ireland is on it's knees. Through the greed that has been exerted by our politicians and bankers have made huge profits. I do worry for the next 10 years. I mean if we go into double dip recession, then were doomed. Ach well there is nothing we can do about it, apart from grin and bear it.

I did gig 5 gigs last week, including 2 hosting slots. I had some varied results. however I had a good time at the gigs. I mean I rocked Snafu and the Cellar 35, which was ace. However I was tired by the 3rd gig. But hosted it well. Then on 4th gig my energy had died and I ballsed the charchter comedy, which was a shame. However what does not kill makes you stronger. I went back to the drawing board and I am writing far stronger material. Is the punch line gag, what i am wanting to pursue, probably not. However it's good to have some bankers for that 5-7minute spots and competitions. The 5th gig was at the Ivory and unfortunately I was feeling like crap, so should of done better, I think there was fatigue as well, However gave a good account of myself, as did the other lads from Aberdeen, with the compere saying that's the strongest line they have had from the North East..

Oh well better go, as have more writing to do, try and have a happy day and see you all for more talk about the double dip recession. joking just pissed off with how the world is going x
