Sat at the table and had brekkie together this morning – very convivial. Seem to have the need for some noise to be on in the background though. Radio 1 again this morning – although Lorraine says she is listening to Radio 4 these days! Out to Iggs for dinner…
Ross Noble
His show called fizzy logic at the Edinburgh playhouse was tremendous – mostly for all the right reasons but also for the bizarre incidents of drunken audience members fighting when asked to be quiet. Anyway, Noble was on top form as usual with topics from Owls falling out of trees…
Another festival fades away
We’re getting to old for this. A day of cycling followed by a chinese – great that we can justify it after the cycling 🙂 – followed by getting a taxi into town at quarter to eleven! Nearly didn’t go because we were both a bit bushed. Was well worth…
Karen Dunbar
Dunno, she was funny but not as funny as I had hoped. Maybe because she didn’t do many of her characters from Chewin’ the Fat – of which I’m a fan. Maybe we’ve been spoilt by all the great international comedy available that when it comes to one of our…
That's no moon, its a space station!
One-man Star Wars Trilogy does exactly what it says on the tin. Charlie Ross whizzes through the original 3 Star Wars movies in about an hour. A must for Star Wars fans as you will marvel out how he can bring such a vast cast of characters, vehicles, droids, aliens,…
Korean Streetdance
Broadening my horizons yet again with the fusion of traditional Korean dancing and some stunningly acrobatic, gymnastic dancing from Myosung. A troop of about 20 performers did dances like sketches in a fast paced TV comedy show – one minute there would be 4 hip hopping street performers spinning on…
Three Mo' Tenors
After a lull of 3 days we started the weekend with a bit of culture at Three Mo’ Tenors at Assembly @ St George’s Church. Lorraine has persuaded me to cast my festival going further than comedy again, what with flamenco last year, and Havana Rumba this year, so a…
4 nights in a row
Frankie Boyle finished off our 4th night in a row at the Edinburgh (Fringe) Festival. Having seen him at least once (maybe twice – I can’t quite remember) at The Stand Comedy Club here in Edinburgh, I was expecting some close to the bone humour, and he delivered 🙂 Nothing…
It was Kylie!
Well spotted Lorraine at Havana Rumba! on Saturday night. Noted here in the venue web blog. Blm
Ed Byrne
Ed Byrne – Coming soon – (he was very good in the meantime) addition -> Aye, he was proper stand up with witty tales of holiday booking on lastminute.com and lots of couples routines. Cool set too – I definitly wanted a shot… (I’ll say no more in case you…
