days off, and comedy

So I managed to get leave midweek and have a few days in London; did sort-of-sightseeing that involved lots of eating dim sum and accidentally getting people Christmas presents, and mainly went to see comedy things that I was very excited about, and they totally lived up to expectations. (NB: as with Edinburgh stuff, this is a transcript of scribbled notes and may not make sense to anyone who isn't me.)
( Alternative Comedy Memorial Society )

Here are a whole bunch of photos and short video from lots of Soho ACMSs, including the 4/11/2013 one I was at. (And here are some five-minute films they did for Channel 4's Comedy Blaps, they're funny.)

( Austentatious )

I also went to see The 39 Steps on a half-price ticket for the matinee, and that was excellent fun as well.

tl;dr- Laughing is good. And if you get a chance to see an ACMS or several, TOTALLY GO IT IS AMAZING.
