Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine. — Lord Byron

This is a throwback post, as yesterday I booked 5 shows in the $25 sale so I know have pretty full dance card for the Sydney Comedy Festival. Some great international comics booked and I took a few punts on ones I didn't know, because for $25, it doesn't matter too much. Some with my husband, some with friends, and some on my own. Now just a few weeks wait until the laughs begin!

With the Sydney Comedy Festival playing in our neighbourhood, I've been making the most of it! Having taken in 4 shows, I've been laughing a lot lately. On Sunday my husband had to work, so I thought we'd taken in a movie that night, so his weekend wasn't a total bust, but there was nothing on at the right time. In the end we took a punt on one of the $20 comedians who was on at 6pm, so we'd be home in time to put the kids to bed.

We laughed solidly for an hour and then went home, happy and relaxed. There's something in laughter that releases endorphins.

So currently in life, I am loving laughter. I am loving the Sydney Comedy Festival and I'm loving where I live - that everything is so close and easy to get to.




Have you been to the Comedy Festival yet? There's one week to go!
Do you love where you live?
Too bad we can't claim comedians on the health fund....

Last hours of the 25 for $25 sale.

    What a lovely post! Reminds me that I really need to laugh more. Life can get far too serious can't it? How wonderful to have a comedy festival near you. :-) #TeamLovinLife

    Laughter is the best medicine and a good belly laugh is good for the soul!

    A good laugh is best medicine. I recently attended the Melbourne Comedy Festival and have never laughed so much in my life. #teamlovinlife

    I totally agree, though sometimes, unfortunately, it can be really hard to find intelligent comedy that's not crass and full of smutty innuendo or overly peppered with expletives. I took my young adult sons to the Melbourne Comedy Festival about 8 years ago - I took a risk and let them choose who we saw - and it was wonderful, we laughed 'til we cried!!

    Oh I totally agree, a good laugh makes me feel fantastic! I get my dose from watching comedy festivals on the telly though. Will have to put seeing a live show on the list of must do things :)

    Oh how fun. Nothing better than a great comedy show. Love them. Not gone to one in a very long time. Need to fix that.

    Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
