children nice two
So, I kind of rather was hoping that people thought it would have a nice mixture of different topics and it also takes in the fact that I've had two children recently.
girl nice important
Even when I wasn't overweight I was never one of those girls or women who wanted to look nice. I always thought it wasn't important.
nice tired make-you-happy
Even nice things don't make you happy when you're tired.
nice moving thinking
I think there's a danger that we're moving towards a state where the people we are expected to admire are almost not human anymore, and I don't like that. I prefer it when someone looks like a nice person, and you think, 'I could have a laugh with them in the pub.'
nice home arms
I can honestly say I've never sold any arms to a repressive foreign regime while reassuring everyone at home that the weapons will be used for nice things.
children couple nice
If you want to get a pet for your child, I suggest a chicken so that when they get bored of it after a couple of days at least you can have a nice roast dinner.
billy bit british-comedian fan perfect supreme
I've always been a bit of a Billy Connolly fan I have to say, because he is the supreme protagonist stand-up if you like. He's a perfect stand-up.
love men
I still get blokes who say, 'Oh you hate men, don't you?' And I say, 'No, I just hate you.' I really love doing that, just to see the look on their faces.
bit thinks
Everyone in comedy thinks if you go to the U.S. you become a global star but, unfortunately, I've always been a bit anti-American - so I never did.
children shopping two
With two small children, I haven't had a wash since 2001 so the chance to go shopping is way down the list. It is something I do intend to get.
men looks boards
You look across the board at comedy quiz shows, and they are mainly hosted by men.
animals eat supposed
If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?
dvds doctors smoking
An overweight guy went to the doctor who advised him to try a keep fit DVD. But the guy said he couldn't be bothered. “Well” suggested the doctor, “try something that leaves you a little short of breath.” So the buy took up smoking.
artist names hip-hop
I am a hip-hop artist, as you probably know. My hip-hop name is Big Smalls.
