Some may have more cash than you... -
Categories: Yeah so I'm here. I'm in a ridiculously expensive internet cafe and I've just clocked the staff here laughing at my disgusting knickers bulging out of my skirt so will keep this short.
I got to Edinburgh yesterday, after a reasonable train journey. There was some posh students playing "stupidly long word" scrabble whilst quaffing champagne on the way up, so although every now and then they all "HAW HAW'D" loudly - I coped and turned the volume up on my IPOD.
I'm staying in a halls of residence type set up with some other comics and its ok. Its very UNI, but not too far from the main action. Once I'd unpacked yesterday I headed for the Gilded Balloon. It was the same as last time, & to be honest this place is just too intense for me. I swiftly moved on to check out the venue we are to perform at. Its the Holyrood too @ Faith and is lovely, a real PROPER venue with an excellent tech crew and production team. I met Caroline and we went for a couple of beers and all was jolly. You can't walk two minutes here without bumping into someone you know but not sure if they wanna be in this blog so gonna leave them out for now.
Caroline and I talked about the show and I think its going to be ok. I'm really nervous to be honest, the show we've rehearsed and rehearsed is finally here and it doesn't seem real. We've sold ten tickets already for tonight which is great! I'm gonna go and do some fliering on the royal mile in a minute (just psyching myself for EXTREME busy-ness) and we have a couple of other flierers helping for today as its our first show and we've been running round trying to get last minute props. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get a kinder egg round here.
Anyway - a short one like I say today but tomorrow I will have more time and will bore you (perhaps) with more of the same only longer.
