The Umbrella Challenge: Part 2 – Construction | Breakfast Epiphanies
https://breakfastepiphanies.wordpress.com/2012/12/23/the-umbrella-challenge-part-2-construction
The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. The Umbrella Challenge: Part 2 – Construction. More than that though I have learned how to build an umbrella. Where the magic begins. 6 metres of copper wire. Snapping the spokes off the clothes horses, I attached wire to the spokes and then threaded another wire through them, and tied this off around the cork, creating the six spokes that would become the dome of the umbrella. It’s ok to be impressed. I placed the whole mechanism upside...

To that woman in Camden who bought me chicken noodles (shouting back, everyday sexism) | Breakfast Epiphanies

The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. To that woman in Camden who bought me chicken noodles (shouting back, everyday sexism). Here’s a specific one for you. To the guy asleep in the park wearing a plastic subway bag like a boxing glove,. It was us who took your empty coke can,. Filled it from the fountain and placed it. Like gyroscopes or jenga on the flat of your forehead. I wasn’t around to watch you wake up and spill it,. But I’m sorry for how much I would have laughed.

https://breakfastepiphanies.wordpress.com/2012/11/07/the-umbrella-challenge-part-1-the-mechanism
The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. The umbrella challenge: Part 1 – The mechanism. Recently, someone who TOTALLY GETS ME challenged me to build an umbrella from scratch before Christmas. My guess is that if you’re a reader of this blog and I asked you to come up with five things you’ve learned about me, three of them would be builds shit, loves umbrellas and responds to challenges , and the other two would be filthy. In other words, yes. I will do this. It’s actuall...

Mr. Clever | Breakfast Epiphanies
https://breakfastepiphanies.wordpress.com/2014/01/11/mr-clever
The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. I recently had a short play I wrote on at the Bush Theatre, and while I was waiting for the show to come down though, I took a book out of the library. It’s called Mr. Clever by Roger Hargreaves. In this book, Mr. Clever is the cleverest man in the world, and he lives in Clevertown where everything is very clever. But one day he accidentally wanders away from Clevertown, where he meets many new people, and they all have questions. That p...

Alfred Hitchcock lemon (whole) | Breakfast Epiphanies
https://breakfastepiphanies.wordpress.com/2012/10/07/alfred-hitchcock-lemon-whole
The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. Alfred Hitchcock lemon (whole). At the Alfred Hitchcock pub, the lake through the window frosted with the moonlight. I clutch in my hand the clues of a treasure hunt never undertaken. Sitting opposite me is the girl. She doesn’t know what she’s about to become part of. But I’m not sorry. She orders herself a drink, and while the staff away I lean over the bar to take a whole lemon from beside the serrated edge of the knife next to it.

The tragically serious chronicles of scriptwriter, Sandy Nicholson. It’s in his Kiss (shoop shoop). Cher is being a dick in that song! 8220;Does he love me, I wanna know, how can I tell if he loves me so? 8221; she asks, pleading with her friends for help. Then each time they offer help and try to answer, she barks back at them “OOH NOOOO THAT’S NOT THE WAY! 8221; and then proceeds to, smugly with great volume, show off that the she knew the answer all along! YOU WERE THE ONE ASKING, CHER! The Umbrella C...
