Sketch Diary: Thou shalt stop shaving, and be mad


Hello, like, freakazoid alert!
This man has been wandering up and down Hammersmith Road for a couple of days, solemnly displaying a peculiar spiritual message. I advised him that he really should rethink his communication strategy. His message could reach a far wider audience using social networking websites, such as Facebook, or Twitter, rather than scrawling on a cardboard tray.

I didn't really! I crossed the road to get away from him.

Sketch Diary: Smoking Bin



Here's evidence of Hammersmith's nicotine-addled office workers, hundreds of whom simultaneously dump their burning death sticks into a bin by the tube station as they rush home. It reminded me a bit of the smoking thing that mental Pope dude waves about.

Sketch Diary: Orthodox Badgers


In the great human fauna of London, these guys are like badgers. Funny-looking, and always a bit exciting to spot. On Cazenove Road in Stoke Newington, I was lucky to see many of its large Torah Jewish community hanging around after a sesh in the Synagogue. This guy was just staring into space, maybe daydreaming about wearing a baseball cap backwards and running amok.
There are lots of Muslims living there too, and I tried to think of something poignant to say about the current situation in the Middle East. I couldn't, but soon got to my friend's flat in Clapton to watch Man U batter Chelsea 3-0.
