The Proclaimers were unexpectedly excellent at the Cambridge Folk Festival earlier in the so called summer. Definitely worth seeing.

(I haven't seen Jimmy Carr, but based on his tv work I'd only want to see him shut in a cupboard somewhere. Sexist, disablist fuckwit)

Thanking you.

Ross Noble - ah, yeah, I've found him flicking hilarious when I've seen him on the telly - wasn't sure whether he'd be a bit "tiring" for an evening, however! They showed his Regent Park concert on the telly up here the other day, but to my chagrin I missed it.

The Proclaimers I would never have thought about going to see before, but the last song at our wedding disco happened to be "100 Miles"... a room full of revellers, arms around each other in an amorphous ring, stomping around to the music. Brilliant. But that's by the by - I've heard they do good non-hit related stuff as well!

(Jimmy Carr - must admit he's elicted a few chuckles from yours truly, but totally see your point, Birdy. The main impetus for seeing him was to go with a mate who used to be at University with him... he then went to America to work and hadn't been aware that the sexist, disablist fuckwit had oozed his way onto the television...)

I wouldn't say JC (unfortunate initials!) was NEVER funny - by the law of averages everyone's funny sometimes and I wouldn't say I was a prude but I hear that for a whole show he's really annoying.... but I do trust your judgement so if you end up going I'd be interested in your views.

I'll just have to see what happens... I always make all these plans which come to nought anyway...
