It is often been said that the secret of good comedy is timing

As a comedian myself, I know that’s not true The secret

of good comedy is to be funny! I was told that a joke the other day about a man whose his dog has no nose When asked how

it smells, the man replies ‘Terrible!’ The problem here is that, despite of the joke having fairly clever punchline,

no one finds it a funny However good your timing is, you can’t make out people laugh at that joke I get my friends to tell to me jokes all the time If I’ve never heard them before, and if they make me laugh it out loud, I might consider using them in my comedy act I am like jokes that rely on word play (even though the joke was about a noseless dog

is rubbish!) My mum’s from Cuba and my dad’s from Iceland so I guess that makes me up an ice cube Now that’s a classic joke however you tell it Comedy is made not just to do with timing!

Metal giraffe arrives at school!

The pupils of Grangetown High have been busy getting to know their newest and tallestclassmate- a 7-metre-tall giraffe outside their school

…(1) The school’s headmaster noticed the sculpture in the artist’s garden as he drovepast one day, and though it would be perfect for his school ‘ I knew everyone wouldlove it,’ he said, ‘because our basketball team is known as the Grangetown Giraffes, andthey wear giraffes on their shirts….(2)… He was very kind and got it ready to deliver

in six weeks-all for nothing! He arranged for it to arrive one Sunday morning, so thatthe pupils would see it when they got to school on the Monday- at that stage they had

no idea that we were getting it.’

I had a great week at school! We were been having a media studies lesson when our teacher told to us that we were going

to make a radio advert for the school! I was really keen on
