Relax

What is your show all about?

My show is loosely based around the benefits of relaxing.

Where and when can we see it?

9.30, that's 21.30, at the Pod Deco.

Do you love Edinburgh or is it a chore?

I love it and there's no way it could be a chore. No matter how poorly the washing up goes it'll never cost you £10,000.

What will you be doing with the other 23 hrs of the day?

Creating a robot to fight with other robots on television for the pleasure of nerds.

What's the best thing you've ever seen on the fringe?

What's the worst thing you've seen?

(answer to both questions...) You must think with artistic side of your skull for this one. There is no bad or good. Just constant performance then an 11 month interval. Critisism or praise lessens you as a human, although the free stage on the royal mile will make you wish for a tightening of the bicycle helmet laws.

What's the most curious thing that's happened to you in Edinburgh?

Nothing springs to mind but maybe I've had all my curious memories erased which then would take the lead in curious experiences. We'll never know for sure.

If you could persuade one VIP to come to your show who would it be? Why?

I've heard Richard Pryor may be there this year. That would be incredible if he came down and I showed him how to get laughs with out swearing. Fight my robot, old man potty mouth.

If the Edinburgh fairy could grant your wish, what would your wish for?

The structuring of this question suggests that there is actually an edinburgh fairy with the power to grant wishes but chooses not to. That sounds more like an un-fairy. Cue the laughter for days. Many apologies to anyone who has taken time out of their day to read that last piece of crap. I'm running out of ideas here.

What advice do you have for first time Edinburgh punters?

Listen to your heart,
