You think this is the real Lee, it is.

Things that I have done as of late:
Went to Estonia, Latvia and Finland in 5 days because Claire has a scratch off map and is trying to visit every country in Europe. In Latvia, we saw a dog that had been cut in half and then sewed onto another dogs back si it could share its heart. It was in a museum, not a street.

I also saw the first dog to go to space and return safely. I looked at it's anus, it seemed fine.
Then, in Estonia, we went to what was called Patarei prison museum but was actually just a Soviet era prison that was emptied and left as is. I saw the hanging room, which took my by surprise and I freaked out a little and sort of ran away for a few steps. They had set up a conference room in one of the cells which struck me as pretty insane, not only was the room terrifying and grubby, with chairs mis-matched and borrowed from various cells but the room was situated just opposite a room where someone had scrawled PAIN in blood. http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonikaarttinen/sets/72157624470739223/
Then, we went to Tunisia, went on camels into the Sahara and that, something happened that I was going to write about but I can't remember what it is...If it comes back to me I'll let you know.
As for gigs, pretty happy with how things are going, getting more consistent I think, got booked to open The Stand in Newcastle in November, should be ace. I now have a joke about the Crash Test Dummies in my arsenal so am expecting all the big agents to get in touch any day now...
Fucked up my So, You Think You're Funny semi-final though, not terribly, I didn't die or anything, still could have gone through if the cards had have fallen my way but I really didn't do myself justice. Couldn't complain when I didn't get through. Good luck to Nicola Mantalios-Lovett who is class and I hope wins (FUNNY TEAM!), good luck also, to Andy Clark, who I don't know as well but has been good company and is a funny act. I'm sure they both realise that I'm better than them too. That was a joke. I'm not bitter. Cunts. That was a joke too.
Palm trees? They're handy...That's a joke too.
No wonder I didn't go through...
Oh, I've had other gigs too, to end this on a positive note, I'll tell you they all went brilliantly, which they did because I am great. Apart from the ones that didn't, although my arrogance has allowed me to forget those.
