Homegrown Scottish comic and former Stand resident compere, Graeme Thomas, makes a more than welcome return home for his debut solo Fringe show, where he will attempt to answer the question we all have rattling round our heads: Who Do We Complain To?...

In grappling with the frustrations of everyday life, Graeme refrains from battering surly call centre staff or taking a high-calibre rifle up to the belltower and, instead, lets it all out onstage in front of an audience. Who Do I Complain To? is a show about the frustrations of growing up and everyday life.

In recent years Graeme has had the untimely habit of nipping off abroad just when he's beginning to make a name on the UK comedy scene. He is now very firmly back from both Canada and France and intending to stay on the comedy radar. He is very excited about this show.

Decisions are made, which result in events that are not to your liking. Granted, it was your decision in the first place but in a world of consumer rights you feel that somehow, somewhere, someone else is to blame: But who??

In this 'don't help me if I am dying in the streets, cos if you make it worse I'll sue your ass' climate there is no such thing as an accident. Surely there is always someone who can take the rap but where are they and how do you reach them? Even when there is a legitimate grievance there is not an easy route to vent your rage. You pick up the phone with a clear mind, knowing what you want to say and get hit with 'Press 8 if you are not satisfied, press 5 if you are still not satisfied, please hold.' Cue music!

We'd all like to think that there is always a poor minimum wage office monkey sitting with a head set somewhere that we can just hit with verbal body blows. Sadly this is not always the case and anyway they are not the CEO, they are sitting watching the clock going 'Mmm, aha, you have a point Mr Insert Name'.

Companies have set out their stalls well; calling us at tea time from call centres abroad, where English slang and regional accents are not always understood, and telling us we have managed to win a competition that we can't really recall entering in the first place.

Companies, services, TV, and not forgetting, the weather, all get us agitated and annoyed but what do we do with this, are we bottling it up? That can't be good.

Living with certain events is especially hard when it was your own decision in the first place, but surely you weren't presented with all the facts? That's right, you weren't given all the facts so it wasn't your fault, but whose was it?

Aggghhhh!
