Saw Billy Connolly live at The Cliff's Pavillion in February. In spite of poor reviews, I thought he was on top form, and this is coming from someone who has grown up watching his standup. This was my third and favourite time seeing him.

Unfortunately, the camera police were there. She stood next to me for almost the entire performance, which was a drag. These were taken with the stealth of a ninja.



I think he was about to drop an F bomb!





No Connolly show is complete without a reference to Catholic priests...

Only Billy Connolly is allowed to double up about his own jokes!

Earlier on, my friend fixed my vacuum cleaner. And I have never seen someone so excited. I've a good mind to vandalise it just so she gets to repeat the operation.

Oh oh, if you haven't tried Chocka Block peanut butter nutter ice cream, then you must. Best eaten straight from the tub while wearing nothing but underwear, obviously.

Last night I had the pleasure of sitting for two hours and watching Billy Connolly tell stories, play banjo and do silly walks. I feel genuine warmth for that man and he is probably the only famous person that I would act like an annoying fangirl around if we were to meet. Knowing that I had snagged the last pair or tickets made it all the more enjoyable. Wasn't going to take my camera but did. The pictures are a bit rubbish what with my distance and height from the stage, but it was an awesome time. Very surreal watching Billy Connolly watching the famous 'incontinence pants' sketch on a projector.
