The second gap

Phew.

Back from Edinburgh, and the Fringe Festival.

We flew up to Edinburgh late Friday and caught up with our friend Linda that night. She's producing a show called Shaken N' Stirred. A funky Jazz cabaret show, with random guests from other parts of the festival. So every night is different.

Other shows we saw:
Darkside: A one man show by Tim Minchin, who apparently won some awards back in Melbourne. Intelligent humour, songs and cheap gags. Fantastic
Shut up Comedy from Japan: Two crazy Japanese guys who start with high speed visual gags, and move onto a recreation of Rocky. Great, but somehow the two sections didn't quite mix.
Best of Edinburgh: A grab bag of stuff.

Did we get to see everything? No. But there are thousands of shows on, so we didn't really expect it.

Next stop, Budapest
