eddie izzard | death star canteen

one of the funniest things i've seen in a long time. eddie izzard is a genius, and the lego somehow amplifies the humour. you can see the original here.

derek & clive | ad nauseam

time for some light relief. or it would be if it wasn't at times rather uncomfortable listening. apparently dudley walked out half way through the recording.

released by virgin in 1978.

i'll tell you one thing i can't stand about russia.

laugh? i nearly shat

i'm tired today. been having too much fun clearly. laughter is a great cleanser - chuckle out the cobwebs, the grumps, the headaches.

if you feel like you could do with some of that, maybe these will help:

::: alan partidge - the child prodigy
::: chris morris - unflustered parents
::: crabby cabby - you're ma bitch

and if that's not done it for you then try this dose of loveliness:

::: au revoir simone - through the backyards
