First Show done....

Lovely audience for our first show and so nice to see so many familiar faces from previous years at the Fringe.  Thank you so much for coming back.


It's been a wet one here in Edinburgh and we got drenched on the way to Zoo Southside.  I seem to have booked to see any shows with puppetry in and now realise that that was probably a bad idea.  It's not that we are super critical, it's just that we have seen so much puppetry that very little surprises us.  Just saw a very strange little show 'A Day in November'.  The puppetry was great as was the puppet but the story was about a 100 year old puppet deciding to die. I'm so glad it wasn't any longer than 40 minutes. It's hard to watch such ernest stuff.


Most amusing aspect of today was watching Zak get chatted up on the bus by an Edinburgh teenager who was completely off her head.  She spotted him as she got on with her mates and made a beeline to sit down next to him.  Then she tried to engage him in conversation - "Hello"  "Give us one of your badges!"  What a charmer!


No show tomorrow so we're off to watch lots of other people's shows.
