Title is a bit random but Josh is buying me a bacon and egg buttie from the shop down the road. What a legend.

It's been a hectic week here in Edinburgh, as expected. I'm really not sure what I did on individual days but I managed to fill them with seeing friends, working at the hostel like a slave, sleeping a lot to catch up on not sleeping a lot (or at all), getting new contact lenses, seeing a few festival things, partying and Flight of the Conchords (I must start stalking them a lot more than I am right now).

Saturday night was Maz's birthday drinks and we spent it in a cave (as I've been spending a lot of time lately). We went to Whistle Binkie's (underground - literally - pub) and got free bright orange Jaegermeister bandannas and flashing lights. Sunday was an actually productive day and I did laundry and other such things. Went supermarket shopping for ingredients for the Pancake Brunch extravaganza, and then after cleaning went down to the Meadows for Fringe Sunday. Maz and I got our faces painted again (photos to come) and wandered about looking at random people. Peter Mac (owner of the hostel) was trying to convince people to come over to us to perform bits from their shows, telling them we were disabled children or something. It didn't work. I had to leave early since I was selling burgers again, and then we went to the Royal Mile pub for Phil's last night working there.

Monday night I went down to the Meadows again for a touch of fire twirling. It's always better when there's other pyro freaks spinning with you.

Will hopefully finish this entry sometime soon. I've just gotten back from a quarry party and have to go put my laundry in the dryer. Joy.
