I haven’t done an #introduction. Rude. So. Hello there, Mastodites. My name is Chris and these days I’m largely a #director/general overseer of #TV shows (and occasionally #film). In my past and present lives I am/have been a #stand-up comedian, an #actor, a #writer and the cashier in a #sandwich shop. I continue in my attempts to learn to play the piano and to speak German and remain very, very bad at both.
@mrchrisaddison huh, mastodites. Well it’s better than tweeps I guess.
@mrchrisaddison What was the most popular sandwich?
@mrchrisaddison Hi Chris, i remember you from mock the week (RIP) and of course The thick of it! I too tried to learn the piano but i failed misserably! My OH said the noise from the recorder was better.

@mrchrisaddison

Welcome! You shall fit right in & may you enjoy your time here. 👋 😊

@mrchrisaddison Hello. If you ever need a VO... :D
@mrchrisaddison Hello Chris 👋
@mrchrisaddison Good idea joining an English/German server if you're trying to learn the language 👍
@mrchrisaddison edit your post and put in hashtags!!
@mrchrisaddison Hi, Chris, good to meet you. What TV shows and films are you involved with?
@mrchrisaddison Guten Abend Herr Addison, wir haben Sie erwartet. #chrisaddison
@mrchrisaddison your twitter followers who already moved won't know you're here (welcome by the way!) I only found out because I went back to twitter to effect customer service based change, and happened upon your tweet. You can only search by #hashtag here, so it's worth using lots of them (like mid-era twitter).
@mrchrisaddison
I have every sympathy with both the German and das Klavier, I've been trying to learn for 8 and 2 years respectively. Maybe there's a support group, or failing that a niche instance for us.
@mrchrisaddison you convinced me to make the schlep over here. My first hurdle was spelling mastodon correctly. Now what do all these knobs and lights do?
@mrchrisaddison Herzlich willkommen! Ich bin auch diesem Server beigetreten, weil ich auch Deutsch lerne!
I endorse @mrchrisaddison in all his endeavours. Top man!
@mrchrisaddison I was a fan of your notable work, aber ich hatte gar keine Ahnung, dass du auch Deutsch lernst. So already following you here is better. I'm a software engineer in Sydney by day, but my degree was in German at Newcastle upon Tyne and I teach night-school German for fun and to keep my hand in.

@mrchrisaddison

Hello Chris. Welcome!

You got me at piano. Following!

@mrchrisaddison I think it should be “Mastodonts”…

@mrchrisaddison You missed ‘I was in that thing with Jo Joyner which for some reason didn’t get a 2nd series despite being bloody brilliant’

Sorry - had a bee in my bonnet about that one for a while! I giggled heartily for 8 weeks in 2014 but was left in comedy purgatory. 😂

Welcome sir, to this new platform from the ‘Other place’. See? The whole toot comes full circle and is now weirdly relevant.

#tryingagain

@mrchrisaddison G'day, Mister A, and welcome.
@mrchrisaddison awesome, I used to watch a Chris Addison on telly. Is he any relation?
@mrchrisaddison Nice to meet you, but I must say, the local parlance is #introduction
Much like where you stick capitals in #German written language, you use # over here so we can find things.
@mrchrisaddison Welcome to Mastodonia. Mastodonians are a friendly and peaceable peoples.
@mrchrisaddison Guten morgen Mr Chris, glad you are here, do you know the #joke about the banjo sandwich?
@mrchrisaddison let's not forget that you let Malcolm Tucker tell you who you were required to date.
