Just a quick note to say 'WOW!', what a first show we had yesterday. Sin (on Cowgate) is a brilliant venue for comedy and we must have had well in excess of 150 people in the audience for the show. The reward for an afternoon working hard out on the High Street and Cowgate, selling the show (and the venue's cheap drinks!) to people. The show itself, was a joy to do. Every act brought it and barring the microphone playing up a fair bit, was a great experience for all involved I think. Now, what will today bring? I'd better get out there and find out...

Well, this was the view from my girlfriend's seat several hours ago, just after boarding our train to Edinburgh at Kings Cross. I'm not going to share a more recent picture than this, for fear of frightening old ladies and children – that's the current demographic looking at my screen as I type. So far the train ride has been fairly without incident. I've had to do a last minute flyer design for someone using the keypad on my laptop. With a 9/11 theme. That certainly scared the old ladies. Well, we've got another hour to go 'til we reach Edinburgh for the start of our month. What will it bring? How will it change me? What shows will I see? Will I be a better comedian for the experience? We shall see. I've certainly got enough gigs booked in as a performer to find out, including our own We Love Comedy event in association with PBH's Free Fringe and the 'So You Think You're Funny?' heat on the 16th of August. Aaaaaaaagggrrrhhhh! Sorry, just got the fear. I'm breathing into a brown paper bag now and it's easing off a little.
Anyway, keep coming back, I'll be posting more regular updates than usual here...
