YOU’VE been a comedian, author, activist, protester, actor, artist, curator, playwright, journalist and… pastor? Perhaps it would be quicker to tell us what you can’t do and haven’t done?
Ah, the pastor. I think it was related to finding out that religious buildings were exempt from council tax and as an experiment I wanted to see if I could convert my office into a temple, so I became a pastor online, and in the US I can legally marry, baptise and bury someone.
As for things I can’t do: I can’t drive, and I am useless at angling, sharpshooting, rodeo tricks, and have never hunted foxes. I am average at crazy golf.
