Who Am I? I'm Yvan. A.K.A. Dave, because it's hard to explain quickly to someone on stage how to pronounce my first name. You'll see me around some comedy gigs every few days. I'll be doing giveaways through the Facebook and Twitter pages up to, and during the festival.

Dai Henwood Giveaway

Hi Guys!

I’ve decided to do a giveaway. 

In my interview with Dai Henwood we mentioned his DVD. 

To win a copy of his DVD here’s what you need to do: 

Send an email to: contest@24daysofgiggles.com

The subject line must be the name of Dai’s DVD.

In the body, tell me the story in your life, that is the closest to someone puking on your lap while you’re doing number 2, then punching you in the face funniest thing that’s happened to you at a music festival. 

The closest story to that wins a DVD. 

The comp closes next Wednesday Sunday night at midnight.
