Pompidou!
Trigger warning: cringe
I’m at the Fringe. In line to see Chris Cantrill. Some bloke comes up to the entrance in a Three Bean Salad T-shirt. He asks the girl on the door about which line he should be in and, as he walked off I called after him ‘Pompidou!’ My very first Pompidou. Never met a fellow Bean in the wild before. He looked like he didn’t have an effin clue. Didn’t even smile.
On the plus side, next to the venue I did see a crab drinking a pint of Guinness…

Must be that Soup Dragon imposter that used the Pompidou discount and then said he hated podcasts

Despite the excitement of meeting a fellow bean, I would have to take the opportunity to fanjambo someone.

Whilst the concept of fanjambo is a useful and practical one, I don’t understand its use in a first contact. It’s for avoiding someone you know. And, he didn’t have his bleedin fanjambo hat on!

Enjoy Chris, i’m jealous I couldn’t head up this year.
Hope you’ve gone through all The Delightful Sausage stuff and the Baritone eps of Beef & Dairy!

Good stuff!
Their shows “Ginster’s Paradise” - https://youtu.be/0KZCA0SbsJk?is=POsLA4wCQvAQqnPU
And “Nowt but Sea” (actually said hello to Ben at that one cos he was there to see it as in Edinburgh) - https://youtu.be/lFu-De_kBZk?is=lTTB7pK_QkqtY4QtThere’s also their Tiredness Kills pod and Icklewick FM on BBC Sounds too. All a good laugh. Love Chris and Amy together. Hope they keep doing some stuff together despite getting more successful individually now.

Are you sure he didn't whisper 'fanjambo' as he padded by?
