Edinburgh Festival 2008

Just picked up my Fringe guide and now marking off the things I fancy seeing - stupidly early but worms and all that.

What's everyone else thinking of?

Jim Jeffries has a new show, so I may well take that in. Will browse the programme in more detail later.

Re: Edinburgh Festival 2008

Went to a few of shows on friday. Pick of the bunch was Borderline at the Underbelly, I Love you..and you...and you.. at C Cubed and Ian Stone at the Pleasance.

Do not go to see One Thing After Another at Madogs. Billed as a comedy sketch show it's actually two posh lassies telling the same joke with the same characters for an hour.

Absolutely dismal stuff.
