A list of things I’ve done in Edinburgh thus far-
Got off the train, and lugged my bulky bags up the platform.
Sat at the railway station waiting for Alex Boundy and Ben Christmas.
Continued to sit at the station.
Brought a ginger beer, then waited some more.
Taxied to Ben’s flat (they’d forgotten about us).
Went to our venue, Maggie’s Chamber (The Three Sisters), had an alcoholic beverage.
Had another alcoholic beverage.
Visited the wondrous world of Tesco. Brought beverages (alcoholic).
Had chilli at Ben’s, with the cast and crew of Aireborne Theatre’s ‘King Arthur’. Lovely bunch, although I probably didn’t make a great first impression, being exhausted after about two hours sleep and making an ill timed joke about Parkinson’s (resulting in the inevitable stunned silence).
Went to the pub.
Briefly returned to the flat, dropping off a few people.
Returned to the pub. Well, club, ‘The Hive’. Pretty cool.
Moved to drum and bass club and stood about looking awkward.
Decided to go back to ‘The Hive’.
Found a guy choking on vomit and passed out en route. Talked to him ‘til Police came.
Brought, and subsequently ate cheesy chips. These were proper good ones mind, fish and chip shop/pub lunch style.
Slept.
Woke up.
Had a cup of tea, watched ‘Spaced’.
Brought Sushi. Ate Sushi.
Met up with the others at The Three Sisters.
Sipped diet coke as we did a basic tech run type thing.
Strolled down to Haymarket.
Found a lovely pub called ‘The Beehive’, whose manager gave us 50% discount on food and soft drinks.
Was served ‘a selection of pies (and mash)’ by a beautiful Irish boy.
Talked about ‘Arrested Development’, ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ and what we’d do if we met ourself, but of the opposite sex.
Realised my phone is definitely dead.
Looked into preview tickets.
Decided not to buy any.
Went home, exhausted.
Turned on my laptop. Wrote this blog.
Yeah.
This time tomorrow we’ll have just finished our first show. Gulp.
