Comedy: Jenny Wynter Finds Her Inner Viking

Brisbane comic, Jenny Wynter, has a new show 'A Viking Tale'. She's an expert on all things Viking — here are her Top 5 tips to find your inner viking.


1. Always refer to your bathtub as your hot spring.

2. Put away your cash, debit and credit cards and instead pay for your groceries with furs, tusks and seal fat (or as a last resort, tuna).

3. Put the iPhone away. Commit to only responding to those who call for your presence with a blowing horn. If they refuse to carve one themselves, you may offer a compromise of them summoning you by loudly humming Flight of the Valkyries.

4. Re-christen the members of your tribe. They are Christine, Brett and Shazza no longer, but Hagar, Thor and Erik. Bonus points if you refer to your family car hereon as "the ship" and your family history as "mythology."

5.  If anybody looks at you strangely for any of the above, simply mutter with disapproval "Odin's beard!" Then cover yourself in war paint, rock up at their house unannounced and take over their lease.
