All over for another year...very sad

We've had the closing party, the high street and ticket village are being disected as I type and the FOTF Box office is nearly empty, after a little carpet fitting action all will be complete. The office is really quite over 100 staff left on Monday and the atmosphere is a little flat but what did I expect?

Hot chip is on to raise the spirits and here's to 2008! xx

Its nearly over but home is calling!

So peeps from home ventually came to the Burgh! Very very exciting!

Saw a show called Ugly Kid then went out all day, Speigle garden followed by various other venues, I love the Fringe!

There were loads of us: Me, Kenny, Rory, Malki, Ritchie, Jen, Andy, Matthew, Kate, Jen C, Chrissi, Mike, Rob and Anna...brilliant!

Tomorrow is the last day which I think is actually quite sad, I'm not sure how I am going to fill my days but i'm sure I'll survive.

Home is calling, It's Hannah's birthday on the first so I'll be heading back to Tregarth to visit her and Alice, I bet she's grown loads!

tortoises, rain and drink!

I can't believe how much it has rained this summer last night the streets of Edinburgh transformed into river me think the recent block buster movie may be to blame!

Twas a good night...although got completely and utterly drenched running between a couple of pubs, very very funny, puddle splashing is fun but wellies would have increased the enjoyment!

A week tomorrow and it's all over for another year...very sad :-(

xx

Lucy and Rory hit the town!

As you can see we didn't really see anyone else but had oodles of fun catching the cave of the golden calf and best of the fest - stephen K amos rocks!

All is good for another day xx

T in the park revisited

Me and the hairy bikers!!!! My first celeb shot!








Me and Jamie by the main stage








Simon and his ruined finger, he trapped it in a fair ground ride whilst a little worse for wear....i know....Simon....Who'd have thought it!


Just realised that I didn't mention my T in the park excursion!! Twas ace...hotchip were there and everything...sweet!

Another day another dollar$

It just started a little late though :-)

After a couple why does it always seem like a good idea to have a couple more?!?! Why didn't I just go home?

Events'r'us Fringe Styly!!!

Fringe Select was a brilliant success and I got to schmoose the green room! Line up: Lion Spirit, Jason Woods, Mark Watson, Sean Locke, Frankie Boyle, Magnets, Soweto Gospel Choir and ZooNation...minted!






RBS Gogarburn Fringe event was really well recieved too with Africa's heartbeat taking centre stage...they are lovely, vute and really brilliant!

They come to the Fringe every year and the twelve month tour they participate in pays for their education in it intirity when they return home (alot of them were only 7!)

Friends B'fast meeting tomorrow then Fringe Sunday the day after...cannae wait, and shows to see this eve! 15hr days take their toll though! Lucy x

The hangovers have kicked in and the Exhibition is up!

The parties were good and I'm starting to feel a little more ready for the party month...bring it on!

The Schools Poster Exhibition was constructed with my own fair hands and is officially erected in John Lewis and even if I do say so myself it is looking mighty fine! I'll try and get my camera there shortly...can't not have pictures :-)

And so it begins....

...in alcoholic style for the staff of the Fringe! Tis mental!

Box office opened on Monday and the previews started yesterday so its all going hell for leather! Very exciting...who knows I may even decide to see some shows this year!

Guilded Balloon and List parties this evening...I'll let you know how they go! Lucy x
