Stand Up Comedy - The Fourth Emergency Service

I've not knowingly seen John Bishop before - he's in a couple of movies - but I decided I ought to see him as I see everyone else, and he might be great. I bought a ticket for my favourite seat, and pinned it on the cork board with the others.

A few weeks later, in Nottingham, I got a phone call, asking me if I was going to see Bishop at the Carbuncle, which led me astutely to assume that I wasn't, at least not on that date. He was doing a set for a tv show (he led us to believe it was Live at the Apollo, but it was actually the ITV equivalent), and so he'd be postponing to 12 April. The date came, without further delays, and that date was itself, apparently, already a postponement.

I went up to the Carbuncle, having watched a movie and two episodes of Battlestar Galactica and read a novel, intending to work there for a few hours. Naturally it's a Darwin College bus that comes along, when I need to shop first so Parkwood would have done. When I want to go straight to Carbuncle I only get Keynes.
