meanwhile, on Twitter...

With hindsight, it was a little bold of me to even dare to title the previous post 'Part I'. I've been so busy lately I've barely managed to perform essential functions like eating and tweeting, let alone writing a
wittyseries of blog posts about my adventures in Edinburgh.Regardless, there are more interesting things to write about, and finishing writing about Edinburgh has become an albatross that has prevented me from writing anything at all. As I'm such a pedantic completionist the fact that I called the last post Part I must mean I need to write a whole load of posts on the subject. Right?!
Part of me actually wishes I had been harrassed by a literal albatross instead, as at least this would have given me something to write about.
So in the noble spirit of 'just getting the bloody thing out of the way' here are a list of things vaguely worth mentioning about Edinburgh. This will be interesting to almost no-one, but at least I'll have done it and we can all move on with our lives.
Edinburgh 2010:
- It was marvellous.
- John Luke Roberts Distracts You From a Murder was a thoroughly superb show.
- H Anthony Hildebrand made me laugh a lot, and was criminally underrated by the audience the evening I saw him. Hope the show got a better run on other nights.
- Stalking is only cool when I do it.
- Everyone I have ever met through Twitter is an excellent person that I wish I could spend infinitely more time with.
- Getting back on the Tube after a fortnight of walking through a beautiful city is a sadly dehumanising experience.
- I met several famous people in social situations and coped surprisingly well. I am cool.
- I shouldn't have been surprised by the dickishness of late night comedy show attendees, but I was.
- Being made to sing under pressure and in public needn't be as bad as imagined.
- Daniel Kitson makes the world a better place.
I saw about 30 to 40 shows, spent time with some of my favourite people, was utterly entertained, shattered and relaxed. I completed the first Phoenix Wright. And I'll be back next year.
