Pavement Walking

We've all done it. You leave the house, do a right and walk along the pavement and see someone coming the other way. And you know instantly what will happen. You are both walking in the centre of the pavement - avoiding branches on one side, the road on the other. Both very sensible positions, until you meet. From about ten metres apart you realise the problem - carry on like this and you'll surely bump into each other. So you both start swaying form one way to the other trying to second guess the other person. Whilst doing this you continue moving forward. Just to add to the thrill, I guess. Will we manage it before we hit each other? Sometiems, the answer is yes. Other times it is not and you couldn't feel more like a failure of a human being if you tried. Oh the shame! Oh! The shame!

Stay calm. You both stop. then sway on the spot. Smiling. Always smiling. You continue saying 'you're a twat' over and over again in your head. Unsure whther you are aiming it at them or yourself. Then one of you takes the courage to stop. The other watches this, still swaying. They stop and decide yes, I shall take the left. And for some indefinable reason, the person who was still swaying suddenly decides that no, they want the left too. So you both stop on the left. You look at each other again and sway to the right. Both of you. One person holds their ground, the other weakens and goes for the left again. Then you both walk on. Smiling and apologising as you pass. Both of you acknowledging you are a failure as a human being. Promising to never again indulge in such tomfoolery. Ultimately swearing never again to be such a tool. Such an absolute idiot. And then you wonder...did I lock the door when I left?

The Nap Is Back

Recently I have been at wrok writing for a campaign entitled, The Nap Is Back. The presentation went extremely well today, with the Channel 4 Head of Talent in the audience finding no negatives to the campaign. She stated it was perfect for E4, witty, fast-paced, brilliant dialogue, very funny and surreal and an excellent presentation.

As you can imagine, we were very proud of this. I wrote and starred in the presentation and wrote the campaign videos seen below. Hope you enjoy them!

Welcome

Welcome to this, The Invisible Comic's first ever post. How exciting. My aim here is simply to write a few things that are meant to be humorous. Be they a sketch, a stand up comedy routine or even a whole sitcom episode, the aim is to enjoy them and (hopefully) make you laugh.
