funny humor organization
I suppose you could be a member of a terrorist organization in a non-violent way, in the laundry or the catering department.
funny humor woods
I am Zebedee, lord of the woods! Bow down snail, I have dominion!
funny humor people
People say 'Bill, are you an optimist?' And I say, 'I hope so.'
funny running country
I spent my childhood scrambling round badgers and foxes and playing fantastic country kid games like knocking on people's doors and running away. God that was a good game.
funny humor light
How many amoebas does it take to screw in a light bulb? One, no two! No four! ...no eight!
jobs college thinking
At college, I felt frustrated thinking three years was a long time and I just wanted a job but afterwards I was in employment the whole time. I got into a theatre company and started doing stand-up gigs for cash, so I lived hand-to-mouth, but there was always enough to pay the bills.
hard-work mean hard
Work hard, save and live within your means.
funny humor doe
This shed does not contain me.
funny humor cheese
Or, as I call it, a Cheesel, it's a Weasel with a Cheese finish.
funny humor unique
Welcome to the O2. A unique building in Dublin, in that it is actually finished.
funny couple humor
There we go, that's it. I just hold my hand in this position for the next couple of hours.
bird bottles stuff
I spent money on a decent bike, a bit of kit for paddle boarding and I like bird watching so I bought a decent pair of binoculars but as far as bottles of Cristal champagne and Gucci loafers? No, blingy and showy stuff isn't me.
gigs lasts earning
Live comedy's a very reckless, foolhardy profession. You're only as good as your last gig so earnings fluctuate.
littles gigs television
Television is where you earn regular money so you can plan a little bit but even then only when you have a regular gig. If you're just doing the odd appearance, you don't know if it will carry on.
