I went to the Sunday event and it was brilliant. Abi was amazing, but all the comedians were superb too. James was his lovely self and so good at what he does. The atmosphere was great. Thank you Abi and Charlotte and Dick for organising it. Truly uplifting.

Hey Abi, thank you for saying that you missed me on Sunday. It sounds like the Backyard was a great afternoon of fun and comedy.

I do like the title “We The People” for the E-book unless anyone on SubStack has a better idea. I think in the future we will be known as The Resistance.

I hope the filming goes well for the Wall of Cunts, I’m excited to see it. I’m going to check out the new merchandise too.

Btw, I don’t think Toby Young could ever be funny or crack a joke.

Hi Wendy, only just seen your post. I had a bad migraine last night and went to bed really early. I see that Trudi has already sent you www.cathycrunt.com

I purchased the tits & arse T-shirt yesterday. I thought it would get more comments than a mug! The site is easy to navigate x

What a fabulous time you all had.

There was a post Charlotte put up with photos and videos of you and gang dancing. It made my heart burst with absolute joy😍😍😍

So glad you met Jules and Mr Jules 💖

I’m also glad that you’re alive to tell the tale. How are the leather pants?😂😂😂

I hope that there will be a repeat next year as I’d have loved to have seen you all.

How much did Bob’s artwork fetch at the auction? I hope it was a large bid.

Jules, I’m so glad you enjoyed yourself 💖

Love to everyone 😊

Sounds like an amazing weekend Abi. I love Carl Vernon. His YouTube channel is brilliant, highlighting the crazy world we live in or as he puts it 'Clown Planet '.

Regarding the e-book title. I would say it needs to be more specific. So if you use the 'We The People ' it definitely needs a sub title. Something along the lines of 'Real stories from the lockdowns' or 'Real people tell their experiences during Lockdowns '. They're probably too long, but I think otherwise it doesn't really say what the book is about. Really looking forward to seeing it though, especially with the Bob Moran illustrations.

You were buzzing tonight Abi, great energy streaming through my phone, fabulous! 😊🥰xx

Great title ideas Louise👍💖

Thanks Trudi. It is such an important book that I feel it needs to leave people in no doubt what its about. I like your first suggestion too. Real stories they don't want you to see. It needs to be along those lines I think. It's difficult to choose a title that encapsulates all of our stories, but people looking at it need to know it's the stories of real people during the Lockdowns. The word pandemic should not feature though as this was a lie. Maybe it could be called Damn lies and Propaganda...True stories from the covid shit show! 😂xx

I''m so glad that Sunday went well and wish I had been there. Next time maybe. We are definitely living in a bifurcarted World now and I know which one I want to live in as it is far kinder, honest and better in every way!

Fantastic podcast Abi! What an amazing weekend. I really wanted to be there but unable to get away at the moment. Hope we get a chance to listen to or watch the shows. I'll look out for other shows too. You and everyone else there must have had such a great time, there is nothing like laughter to make you feel good and really happy.

Just got home around 9,listened to Abi on way back from the airport. It was a long day with a stinking headache 😩 We had an absolute ball,everyone was so welcoming and lovely. We had the best laugh with the best people,just what the Dr ordered.....which is relief because usually it’s a fatal dose of Midazolam 😂 Abi,you are a star,everyone on stage was fab. James is hilarious and was red pilling a young man at breakfast,I nearly wet myself he didn’t hold back,Satan was mentioned and it wasn’t even 930 😂 and he did look lush in his Peter Rabbit outfit ❤️ Trudi and Jan,so sorry u couldn’t make it. Oh well back to the shit show tomorrow,it was good whilst it lasted. Love u all xx

Hiya, I hope you've got a gig booked for this Saturday 10 Dec, but if not meet the tribe https://t.me/TheLightTruthPaper/11980

p.s. If I'd've known, I'd've been there last Saturday. Sounds like a great night. You're right. We all need a good larf.

Moved to Sunday 11th (because of football Saturday) - in case anyone's interested...

Sounded like a great night. Wish I didn't live so bloody far away. 'We The People' sounds good to me. If you see James Delingpole again tell him I love him 🥰 Team James all the way.

Sound a great night - wish I could of been there (I’m in canada, so a bit of a trek). Cheers 🍻 to all!

Sounds like Sunday was absolutely fantastic!!! So glad it all went really well for you, Abi, and that everyone on here who was able to go had a fabulous time!

Abi, two things I must thank you for: firstly, for your kind comments about the brilliant Alistair Williams. Alistair's podcast, and Dr Vernon Coleman's weekly appearance on Richie Allen's show, helped me (and doubtless thousands of others) immensely through those particularly grim days when the shit show got underway, long before Abi Daily started.

By the way, much as I adore your impressions - particularly Angela Rrwaynerr! - nobody does Bill Gates like Alistair Williams.😂😂 Fan-fuckingtastic!!

Secondly, thanks a million for mentioning Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives.' Oh my God, what a tune!!!!!! Love it🥰❤️💖 If ever there was a tune to lift one's spirits and to remember great times, that is it! Just added it to my YouTube favourites. Ta muchly.

Thanks for all that you do. Sending blessings and much love to the Substack family. Gxx

You're a good'un too Abi 🤗

You were on fire Sunday, hilarious, an amazing day and night, and yes, well done Charlotte who *100%* pulled it off..

I smiled at you lots Abi, and Alistair ..but couldn't get to speak to either of you because you were both taken 😂 it was fine tho', lots of really nice, good people, happily mingling together. Tania, brilliant (got a hug) and kudos to Carl, I wouldn't have known it was his first time on stage, he delivered a fair few well timed jokes, really good actually, especially considering the high calibre of all the performers, inc' James, obvs, who's a naturally funny, articulate all round entertainer.

Superb. Memorable. Loved it. Thank you x

Yes, I felt just like that when I went to the GETTR comedy night at Backyard recently when Abi was ill. To be in a place with likeminded people and being able to chat freely is wonderful.

Hi Abi! I said hello to you just as I was leaving - I said I loved the show and that you have a great voice (which is true!). Also, can't believe that was Carl Vernon's first standup gig! He did brilliantly
