Literary Bar of the day… Pre show. Pretty Literary Pub of the day. The Lyric Hammersmith Theatre Bar, before the crowds arrive. A great place to write. Sir Kenneth Branagh cut his teeth here and our own Nick Hennegan is a regular writer here too! 📕🍺 And this is not a sponsored post. Nick just really likes it here!

A Day Off at The Oxford Bar: Edinburgh Fringe Adventures The Oxford Bar. Greyfriars Bobby... unusually without crowds! It happens every Edinburgh Festival Fringe. I start with good intentions of blogging, posting pics, writing reviews... but by about the end of week one, I'm embroiled in the everyday of the Fringe, marketing, flyering, finding times for normal 'life' stuff. So a day off isn't really a day off. I didn't have to meet a group of lovely strangers at the bar in the Pleasance Dome today and have to summon the Spirit of…

Edinburgh Fringe Mini-Blog. Day 4. A local foreigner! My second day off.. which as I mentioned yesterday feels a bit weird, ‘cause you don’t normally do that at the fringe… but having the extra headspace, it became weirdly emotional. It kind of occurred to me that for many years I’ve spent 1/12 of every year in Edinburgh. And in various places… but for the last maybe 10 years I was with Mervyn Stutter’s Pick of the Fringe marketing folk, just off Holyrood and the Royal Mile.

Edinburgh Mini-Blog. Day 3 The Day The Winds Came! Storm Floris took centre stage at the Edinburgh Festival today. it was an odd experience - made even more weird because I didn’t have a show today! More about that in a moment. And if I had, as a largely outdoor show (walking between pubs!) we would probably have had to cancel! There’s an old showbiz adage about how the show must go on.

Edinburgh Fringe Mini Blog. Day 2 I’d forgotten quite how frantic, phonetic… yet fantastic the Edinburgh Fringe is. It’s the biggest open arts festival in the world – and I’m at it!
