DID IT ON THE WRONG THING

Well, That Went Remarkably Well

As oppose to my suggesting that Greg Davis would 'Rip the piss out of me', the night went fantastically well.

There really wasn't anything for me to complain about, which I didn't expect to be saying as we left roughly ten minutes later than expected. This was, of course, my fault; I had been spending too long on my previous blog. So, dabs of panic already appearing, we set off, only to find that we would have to be diverted, putting another fifteen minutes onto our journey. Oddly, this couldn't have worked out better for us. After sitting in our seats which provided us with a perfect view for a matter of seconds, the incredibly well grown man proceeded to the stage. This entrance was followed with a show which I am afraid to admit gave me 'the giggles'.I would highly recommend the show for anyway who has a soul. Unfortunately , He didn't pick on me for being a drama student, but opted to tell us about some of his more ludicrous pupils. My disappointment for not being picked on, however, was more than made up for when I noticed a large head above the crowd in the bar. Grabbing a pen and one of his posters, I began to move forward. I was reminded of the time that I met Rhod Gilbert, and my mum managed to get on better with him than I did. Worry started filling my head. This doubt, of course, escaped my head as soon as we started talking. I would have to say that he is the nicest famous man I have ever met, and he probably will be for quite some time. A few photos of me looking small in comparison with him and a poster on which he signed 'cheers Andrew/ Greg' between his nipples later, I became a happy and optimistic child who couldn't stop smiling.

I may have to clarify for a few of you that he was topless in the photo, something which we had a conversation about;

A- "What possesed you to have the photo taken naked?"

G- "You know what? Basically, I was in a photoshoot for about three hours and nothing vaguely funny had happened so I literally just said 'Shall I take my top of?' 'Okay... How about this hat?' That was it!

 

So the night was undoubtedly a success. Today, I'm off to see my friend Tom, a boy whose manners are impeccable. There may be a few updates later, but for now that's it, bye.

P.S Anyone who sees Greg as a direct result of this blog, watch out for his encore, it is incredible.
