Ooooh fancy

I've grown to appreciate the edinburgh festival over the years, at first i was just happy with the extended pub opening hours that came along with the event, then i started to look at what went on during the fringe festival. Plentiful comedy acts, from the inspired to the insipid, there is an abundance of excellent comedians among the seemingly endless amount of shows on offer.

This weekend i'm looking at something new, i'm going to see an offering from the International Film Festival, i'm going to see a film called Mirrormask from the imagination of Neil Gaiman, author of the Sandman series of comics and a good few novels also.

I don't see myself checking out the Jazz or Art festivals anytime soon though. Comedy and film is more my scene.
