Had some lovely plaudits this week if you’re interested in that sort of thing. I appreciate some of you may not be, and others may be actively furious. Sadly, I can’t please everyone. Cheers.

I've taken a couple weeks off since the Fringe ended, but it's back to the social grind lessgo

Been talking about this video for a while, finally got around to editing it!

Thankyou to everyone who has bought tickets to the tour so far, and a big thankyou to the 82 people who came out last week in Aberdeen!

Tickets all available on my website, including the taping of the special in Edinburgh on the 15th of November. See you all out there 🌅🎹🎉

Also massive thanks to the beautiful @jessicabrindle for putting up with my anxiety as we filmed this 😬😬😬

And that is a wrap for @edfringe 2026. It was a rollercoaster with highs and lows.

I like to thank @hootsfringe for the venue and @ingeniousfools for being my producers.

Thankyou to all who came whether punter, comic or critic.

Thankyou to @lafsuk for adding another nomination to my CV.

Hopefully the next one we can go bigger bolder but more structural concise and get more reviewers in.

I have also put down some of the shows that i found as real highlights of the festival for me this year.

This year has felt like a real fight and the successes of this show are not just my efforts or support.

Thankyou to @hootsfringe for the venue and @ingeniousfools for being my producers

Thankyou to every comedian who came to watch the show whether of your own choice or because I summoned the banners including those associated with @theacms , @proj.comedy , @disabled_cants.

Thankyou to @theskinnymag , @beyondthejoke , @the.scotsman , @lafsuk and @ayoungishperspective for your positive reviews and media coverage in supporting this silly clowns fight against captialism.

I also want to thank @silcox_mark and @adamlarter for inviting me to work on Mark's gold trading show

An incredible review from @ayoungishperspective for Clown Fish Out Of Water.

They completely got the core message of the show, backing my "call to arms" to protect weird, avant-garde acts at the Edinburgh Fringe.

They argued that the festival desperately needs strange, boundary-pushing shows to fight back against the "profiteering racket" of commercialised comedy.

This show has always been a fight for the very soul of the Fringe and a space for true alternative comedy.

Huge thank you to the reviewer for standing in my corner!

Case in point earlier in the run we had "i am Spartacus" as I asked the acts to plug their shows

One last show tonight and tomorrow. At 22:30 in potterow. If you cannot catch ut I will be doing it in Birmingham and Nottingham post fringe.

One of my favourite things about the fringe is I let myself eat whatever I want, every day. Here are some of the highlights, as well as one picture of a microwave meal and toast I had a few days ago that I used because I needed an extra slide.

I'm having the best time, thankyou everyone!!
