Cardiff this weekend....

... was fantastic!

The hotel was civilized and clean, the weather glorious, the gigs marvellous!

Thursday and Friday we had the gorgeous Mandy Knight, who blew the room away with her acerbic comments to unsuspecting members of the crowd. Until Mandy did her set I was the nasty girl in the room, after her I was Mary Poppins!

Owen was sooooo funny, some of it unintentional. His nickname of the weekend became 'Man of a Thousand Voices' as every accent he did was exactly like his own Northern Irish one!

Craig was so relaxed onstage, he's one of those comedians who make it look easy. He shares his enthusiasm about life, the universe, and New Zealand, taking you with him on the ride. Wonderful stuff.

On Saturday Mandy wasn't with us as she'd been called back to London to do a special gig, but in her place we got the fantastic Mickey Flannagan, who just keeps getting funnier and funnier.

You know how you meet some people and they are just on your wavelength, you can take the piss and they just laugh cos they 'get it'? Well Mickey is one of those guys. I introduced him as one of my favourite acts and as we passed on the stage I whispered 'don't fuck it up' and he laughed.

Some people don't understand that when you take the piss its cos you like em, if you didn't you wouldn't bother, thank god Mickey understands.

Thanks for making it a great weekend guys.
