I’ve been thinking a lot lately about live comedy, and how much of a role in plays in my life. Regular readers of my blog will know that Liam and I make regular trips to comedy gigs (you know, pre-covid of course) and last year we went to what was probably our record number of … Continue reading My Favourite Live Comedy Performances
I was very late to the party with podcasts in that I didn’t start listening to them until about 2 years ago. Podcasts became a firm fixture on our morning commutes once I started my job working in Bath, making the 30-40 minute trip each way a little more bearable. Given the current situation (the … Continue reading The Best Podcasts to Listen To Right Now: My Four Top Picks
Well, better late than never. Things are a little late with my March wrap up given that I took a bit of a blogging break given the old Corona situation. Let’s be honest, when it comes to what’s happened in March, it’s all been a bit shit. The beginning of March didn’t seem too bad, … Continue reading March 2020 Wrap Up
One thing that my husband and I are known for is our love for stand up comedy. Since 2010, birthday and Christmas gifts have often been in the form of comedy tickets, and it’s meant over the years we’ve seen some of our favourite comedians, including Russell Howard, Lee Evans, and Jimmy Carr. Back in … Continue reading 2019: A Year in Comedy
I can’t believe we’re officially coming to the end of 2019. It only feels like yesterday I was writing my 2018 in Review post, which just so happened to be my first ever post on Sassy Cat Lady. It’s so cliche to say that the time has flown by, but it really has done this … Continue reading 2019 in Review
2019 was definitely the year that we branched out in terms of telly. Normally, we stick to our usual boxsets and reruns, but this year we went for quite a few new bits. Well, it wasn’t exactly new new, but it was stuff we haven’t seen before, which I’m counting as new. So, as we’re … Continue reading My TV Highlights of 2019
Last year, I really got back into reading. I’m not entirely sure what stopped me in the first place, but I soon discovered that it was a great outlet for my anxiety. Over time I began to wrack up a long list of titles that I wanted to read, and I figured that I really … Continue reading 6 Reads in 6 Months: January to June 2019
I can’t believe we’re now in July. It’s crazy. It’s been quite a busy three months since my last quarterly review, and I’ve actually been finding that I’m doing more stuff because I want to have stuff to write about. Is that weird? I guess it’s good in a way because it means it’s encouraging … Continue reading Birthdays, Butts and Comedy: A Review of April, May and June
If you haven’t heard the Off Menu Podcast, I strongly recommend it. Hosted by two of my favourite comedians, Ed Gamble and James Acaster, they interview a guest each week who picks their dream menu, with foods from any meal at any time of their life. Their guests range from fellow comedians to actors and … Continue reading My Dream Meal As Inspired by the Off Menu Podcast
As I write this (23rd May 2019), the final ever episodes of The Big Bang Theory will be airing in the US. We won’t see it here in the UK until this evening, but seeing the casts’ BTS photos on Instagram have got me feeling emotional. I mentioned a few posts ago that TBBT is … Continue reading My Top Ten Episodes of The Big Bang Theory
