Edinburgh Day 21

I keep bumping into people that are excited about having Marmite on toast. I am definitely part of society that enjoys Marmite and does not hate it, but I’m not sure I would go so far as to say I ‘love it’. I love lots of things but my feelings towards Marmite, while very fond […]

Edinburgh Day 20

A week and one day to go. It might not seem that far away for a lot of exciting things, but in terms of the Edinburgh festival, it still seems miles and miles away. It’s about this point where I really miss my own bed back at home. We had a discussion about beds last […]

Edinburgh Day 19

Once again I have failed to incorporate blog time into my day and I am about to head to the Underbelly to see Collins and Herring’s podcast. James of Twitter Comedy Club fame kindly bought me a ticket some time ago, and we both overlooked the dangers of watching anything that’s on earlier than about […]

Edinburgh Day 18 (and some of Day 17 too)

Hello. Here is a proper blog. It will contain many things. If you are concerned about how many things or perhaps are worried about an overload of things, then please look away. I understand that yesterday’s blog was more minimalistic than an ant’s impression of Dan Flavin (check my knowledge). So while you may have […]

Edinburgh Day 17

There is loads and loads to blog about today but I am too busy to blog about any of it. This is entirely my fault you understand, due to staying out slightly too late and not getting up early enough. However, you, the blog reader must suffer for my incompetency. What I suggest is that […]

Edinburgh Day 16

Back to the grind today. Well show actually. There shall be no grinding here. Instead there will just be more shows. I think after a day’s rest I’m up for doing my show all over again. It felt nice not saying all the same words yesterday and I’m oddly looking forward to doing the whole […]

Edinburgh Day 15 – Day Off

Its finally my day off today. To ensure I spend it the way I should ie resting and prepping myself for the rest of the fest, I cleverly drank my face off last night, to the point where the whole of today is a write off and I feel like a broken man. My plans […]

Edinburgh Day 14

One day to go until my day off and I’m feeling back on form. My duties today involve my show, followed by getting sworn at for 10 seconds at Seymour Mace’s show and then going out and drinking until my eyes bleed. Please note: eye bleeding result is optional. I’ve often used the term ‘drink […]

Edinburgh Day 13 – The Wall

A short blog today. The reason for this is that I think I hit the wall yesterday. It wasn’t a particularly bad wall, and was certainly not covered in anti-climb paint or even rude graffiti, but it was a wall nonetheless. I didn’t realise I’d hit the wall until I was about 15 minutes into […]

Edinburgh Day 12

One day a law will be passed that bans anyone from interviewing or talking to a comedian before 12pm on any given day. The exception to this rule would if the comedian had been up all night and was still awake, which might marr the interview somewhat, or if the said comedian is in a […]
