| 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? |

| 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.
