Knives


I’ve always wanted to go to Switzerland to see what the army does with those wee red knives.    Billy Connolly

William “Billy” Connolly, CBE (born 24 November 1942) is a Scottish comedian, musician, presenter and actor. He is sometimes known, especially in his native Scotland, by the nickname “The Big Yin” (“The Big One”). His first trade, in the early 1960s, was as a welder (specifically a boilermaker) in the Glasgow shipyards, but he gave it up towards the end of the decade to pursue a career as a folk singer, firstly in the Humblebums alongside friend Gerry Rafferty until 1971, and subsequently as a solo artist. In the early 1970s, Connolly made the transition from folk- singer with a comedic persona to fully fledged comedian, and is now considered by many to be the greatest stand-up comedian of all time.
