Don’t try and make a super-funny stand-up routine if that’s not you – follow the basic structure and add in a couple of jokes
Everyone knows how hard it is and will laugh along no matter how nervous you are
Once you’ve actually stood up and said a few lines it gets easier
I’ve seen quite a few, some good, some not as good and some very nervous – at no point did I ever think this is terrible – everyone has been drinking wine and in a good mood – dont put too much pressure on yourself
