I feel compelled to quote the late great Sean Lock:
"I'm incredibly organised. Like for example, if I make tea, I don't make one cup of tea - I'll make a big batch of tea and then I'll have a cup of tea and then I'll freeze the rest of it. And then when I want to have a cup of tea, I'll just break off a bit of frozen tea. Put it in a pan. 25 minutes later I've got a lovely cup of tea without all the all the hassle."
This can't be true, can it?
For context, Sean Lock was a comedian. He was one of those where the humour wasn’t just in the joke, but in the delivery.
So I have no doubt he said that, and I have no doubt most of the room was in stitches while he did.
He was a comedian with a deadpan sense of humor.
Coincedentally: the same dead pan in which he heated his frozen tea in
Best answer ever.
Thx for sharing the quote. I did not know about that dude but you can be assured I'll do my homework :)
The "carrot in a box" games he played with Jon Richardson on 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown are some of my favourite TV ever...
