Indigestion.
It is the night before christmas. Contrary to the poem, there are creatures stirring in this house, though I'm not sure any of them are a mouse. In fact, that would be most unhygienic.
Stewart Lee 41st best stand-up in the world ever was on my viewing agenda today. Unfortunately I am to report, with some disappointment, that on second viewing it is not as good as the first. And even the first viewing wasn't that great, in all honesty.
It's not that it's bad, it's just not that funny for what is supposed to be a comedy routine. A rather dull stuffing is specked with occasional peppercorns. Here, peppercorns are moments of great comedy routine (let's say Schwartz), but the stuffing itself is Paxo at best.
If you are going to watch a standup show, may I recommend Russell Howard's live DVD. I personally enjoy his Bristol accent, and some of what he says is genuinely quite funny. And it's not all material that he's used on Mock the Week. Like Frankie Boyle.
Rudolph and the gang should be on their way any minute, I just hope Santa can find time to fit in all the kids. What with the credit crunch, gas failure to those 18,000 homes and a bad year for Gordon Brown it's time something went to plan for them. Poor guys.
