New Comedian #13: Missing the mark

The other week my flatmate Charlotte and I treated our friend Rachel to a tour of London for her birthday. I’ve known Rachel since school and have been on several long weekends away; and we always go on a tour of wherever we are.

This tour was one with a difference; it was called the Bullshit London Tour and was completely made up! It started at St Pauls Cathedral and finished at Trafalgar Square. The tour guide in essence was telling funny stories the entire time (which is what a comedian does in stand up anyway), but to be honest, neither Rachel, Charlotte or I found it that funny. The rest of the group who the majority were tourists found it hilarious but I couldn't see what they found so funny.


There was one part which was amusing, and that was when we were walking through this little cafe and quirky shops area near the Southbank and he said how it was the set of a foreign drama, and then pointed out random strangers as if they were actors in the drama.


The weather however was good, so it was a nice way to see London.
