You have received: ✨The Blessing of the Orange✨ Just now I was delighted to be accosted by this gorgeous cat, seemingly waiting just outside my car and super friendly! Also very happy to sit and pose for photos 😺 That's brightened my day immensely. Though now I want cats of my own even more! 😅

Two photos of a gorgeous white and orange cat. On the left she is looking upwards, on the right she is looking directly at the camera. Vogue.

One year ago today; I think this was my best stand up gig. I do miss it, hoping to work the confidence back up to return... at some point.

A photo of Aaron doing standup. He is wearing an open colourful shirt over a black tshirt. Behind him is an orange wall and there's a spot light casting a shadow.

Too early to think about Christmas? Not for me, this morning it has been officially confirmed - I'll be back in the big red suit for Audley End Enchanted Railway again this year! 🎅🏻

I am at last, attending the tale... 🩸 Sweeney Todd at Birmingham Rep. Review to follow.

It is me. Again. #NewProfilePic

Thoughts/feedback please; Is it too aggressive/cocky for me to post this in the comments of any business page I see promoting themselves with AI images/flyers? I usually comment "booooo ai" anyway but I feel like this is more encompassing. Or is it too cheeky? ( It winds me up so badly...! )

White text on deep purple background reads:

Booooooo!
Using gen-ai for this image has made your business look
Lazy
Cheap
Careless
Untrustworthy

Next time try working with a human instead.

Really enjoyed The Bench, though my attempt at sleuthing was unintentionally interpreted as "a very good but absolutely devastating heckle" ... whoops. Brilliant show though, I loved it. And I got to personally profusely (unnecessarily) apologise afterwards. Thanks @mikewozniak.bsky.social!

A wider angle showing the view from my seat on the second row - very good position to enjoy comedy from.

A picture of me with Mike Wozniak. Lovely.

I wrote a (shit) poem for my birthday. 38 today! 🥳

A photo of Aaron against a brick wall, he has neon green glasses.

AARON WEIGHT AT THIRTY EIGHT. 🥳

Hey look, that rhymes!
And so for "poetry" it's time(s),

Months of late have been quite tricky,
The darkness of mind has stuck around, icky!

Yet in the dreary I still find great joy,
That's thanks - a lot - to all of yoy.

I'm grateful as always to my family and friends,
Lets do what we can so the good times never end(s).

You can guess by now a poet I'm not really,
Reading these couplets might make you bad-feely.

Were I to apologise it'd only be false,
Writing all this made me laugh like a horse.

Plus hopefully you know - I did not need shameful AI,
Every time I see it used, my heart does cry.

For my own posterity I now enclose a selfie,
To be remembered in the future like a digital shelfie.

(It's great for once to have a decent excuse,
Normally I just post them to preen like a moose.)

I don't look my best, my hair unusually plain,
But still happy am I to have a birthday again.

So thanks once again to everyone so far for their wishes,
You really are the most wonderful best bunch of friend bishes. xx

Alas, tis true! 😎

Huge thanks to everyone who sent us kind words following our appearance on Riddiculous - it was such a fun day in the studio with everyone having a laugh, and obviously made even more fun when... [spoiler] - it's still available on ITVX if you want to watch it, S3 ep18 - enjoy! ☺️

Reminder that I'll be on TV tomorrow afternoon, 3pm on ITV1 - Riddiculous. Annoyingly I'll be out at that time, but I was there when it was recorded so I do already know what happens. I can't tell you anything yet, but we had a good laugh - I hope you enjoy it too :)

Just found out that Rob Grant, co-creator of Red Dwarf and my favourite author (Incompetence and Colony) passed away yesterday. Comedy legend, RIP.

Tonight's office - a promo shoot for Insert Laughter Here! Sadly we had to postpone another show, but we went along to the venue anyway to record some promo silliness to hopefully help with the next ones. We had a laugh anyway! Come see us there in March and April, please! 🙏

Last night Chloe brought me home yet another eggpal - this time with a bacon buddy too, and they're magnetic! Oh. Em. Gee. I'm running out of space on the egg shelf at this rate! #eggpals

A plushie pair of characters with cute happy faces - bacon on the left, an egg on the right.

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Feb 16

Another new eggpal, this time from the incredible craft skills of @earthandsand.bsky.social - this very realistic looking fried egg magnet - bonus, the yolk is impossible to split! 😆 Also delightfully packaged so worthy of its own new section on our fridge. Thanks Anna! I love it. #EggPals

The complete package contents including a hand written note, sticker, cute folded origami heart, a business card and of course the egg magnet itself.

A close up of the magnet on its own - it looks a lot like a real fried egg, just miniature. Excellent craftsmanship!

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Feb 16

TV appearance! I am now able to share that I will be appearing as a contestant on ITV1's Riddiculous - Wednesday 4th March, at 3pm. Nick and I (and all the teams) had a lot of fun on the day so I'm very excited to finally see it shown. Tune in to see what happened!

My working worlds are colliding! 😆 Murder at Midnight by Original Theatre at New Wolsey Theatre Bloody good fun! 👌 @originaltheatre.bsky.social

DIGITAL MEDIA & COMMS I've got some space to expand my portfolio so if you would like a human to work with on these things, get in touch! - Websites - Email Campaigns - Media Creation Human crafted shiny pixels. For the Humans. (This post is exceedingly satisfyingly shareable 😎)

I don't have many words currently, so instead here's a graphical representation of how I feel.

An extremely degraded and eroded black and white photo of Aaron.

Another year, another AGM complete. Reflecting on a great 2025 and looking ahead to what's to come in 2026. Fingers crossed... #InsertLaughterHere

A selfie of Aaron at his desk in an insert laughter here tshirt and with colourful lights around him - obviously.

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Jan 6

Already improving: Added a split yolks justification and penalty score tracker too. I shall be doing my best to keep this number as low as possible, obviously.

Two additional columns - Any Split Yolks? (Include summary/excuses) and Split Yolk Penalties (SYPs)

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Jan 6

Inspired by @awittyremark.bsky.social - I have now created an egg-tracking spreadsheet, where before I was relying only on a clicker counter app and instagram. Starting columns and entries here, what else could/should I include?

A snapshot of the table, columns include the date, the number of eggs, a description, a score out of 10 and a space for notes.

... but the show was never about anything more than telling a fun story together, if your theories or fantasy ships were wrong go cry about it some more. What an epic adventure, bravo. #StrangerThings #SeasonFinale [2/2]

My last day as FC today, so the final family photo is a tribute to one of the cutest (of the many) pieces of artwork we were given through the run by children. This one had become a bit of a mantra for all of the elves... WHEN SANTA IS COMES TO YOUR HOUSE HE HAS KEY!! Aaron Claus - OUT! ✨🙌🏻✨

The elves are gathered around Santa who is holding a giant key aloft, in sort of tribute to the Tron movie poster. Above it all superimposed is the drawing from a child which has the immortal words of legend.

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Dec 22

Ho Ho Ho! 🎅🏻 (Took my proper camera in so someone could get a nice photo of me in costume!) Also I have a new profile picture.

Aaron dressed as Father Christmas, standing in a lovely quaint grotto scene.

Today's family photo: Santa's Storytime for the elves and the teddies ☺️

Yesterday's family photos: "gone fishing" and "the spiderman meme" 😂

In the grotto all of the elves are lying on the floor pretending to be fish, Santa and Mrs claus are at the back holding giant candy canes to look like fishing rods

Two Santas pointing at each other like the Spider-Man meme where three are pointing at each other.

Aaron Weight@aaronsays· Dec 19

Today's family photo, can you tell what we were aiming for? Hint: it's not a crime scene 😂 (The alt text will tell you!)

Santa, mother Christmas and elves all lying on the floor of the grotto, they are attempting to spell out a word with the collective positioning of their bodies arms and legs. Conceptually this worked better than the delivery, but the word is XMAS. Aaron is doing the X all by himself because he has very long arms and legs, all the other letters have to be made by two people.

One year ago today I won the Taskmaster Live Experience - the final was me and four members of the same family. They were joking about giving me honorary family membership - they all looked betrayed when I beat them. Sorry, not sorry. 😅
