Done and dusted

Edinburgh is over. The Fringe at least; the city itself is still standing as far as I’m aware, but I am not in it any more. I have escaped to Bristol, after last night’s Leeds shenanigans which involved a rousing performance by my inspiration in skinny showmanship, Jarvis Cocker, and his superb and ageless band Pulp. I will now be in Bristol for some time, but also (during the month) Dublin, Belfast and maybe very briefly Melbourne. None of this sounds very relaxing but it’ll be more relaxing than August was, and who knows, maybe the blog will even go back to being interesting. I have some reasonably interesting news, actually, in the days ahead. Stay tuned.

Bristol eh? Nice place. I’m off to London, infact, I am typing this from the Edinburgh to Kinds X train.

You love a build-up, don’t you Mr Watson?

Be sure to let us know if Melbourne becomes a “definitely” instead of a “maybe” [unless you're coming down for something horribly depressing, like a funeral, and you don't really want to talk about it].

Melbourne needs to stop being a maybe!

If you do come to Melbourne please do some kind of event/show as it would be lovely to see you x

I enjoy the ‘maybe very briefly Melbourne’ like it’s not on the other side of the world.
Have enjoyed all of the Edinburgh blogs but felt nothing worth commenting on so I’m glad your shows went well and that you had a good time!

I was in Bristol last week. My grandmother fed me some very dry ice cream. I wasn’t previously aware that ice cream could go dry, but there you are.

I very much like the casual nature of just popping to Melbourne for a little bit.
I also like reasonably interesting news.
As an aside, can I make a small plea to anyone who met the beloved iPod? I’m putting the map together and have some details on people’s song choices and the handovers themselves missing. This upsets my Google Map OCD. The map itself is here – http://is.gd/zUme77 – so if y’all could have a look and see what’s there, then email anything that you feel like adding to mp3challenge@live.co.uk that would make me super-happy.
(Although maybe not as happy as the picture Kathryn drew made me. Eep! http://yfrog.com/h2vnosqj)
