I have clearly focused too much on zombies lately. Last night’s gaming session with Mat, whilst occasionally including games such as Arkham Asylum and Prototype, mostly tended towards hours killing Nazi Zombies on World at War or finding different objects to hit the undead with in Dead Rising. There was at least 6 hours spent […]

Starting Again

I’m not as ill today. This does not mean I’m not ill at all, because I still am a bit, but I’m much better than yesterday. This worries me as the better I get, the more I’ll actually have to do rather than just slob around the house. Slobbing is good. Maybe I need to […]

Back to the grindstone this evening with a lovely gig in Thames Ditton this evening. When I say grindstone, I mean gigging. I haven’t previously been at a grindstone, nor do I intend to return to one as I can’t imagine what help it would have on my career. ‘How are the gigs going?”Rubbish, but […]

I am properly ill. Like really really. I checked with Layla and she has confirmed it is not just man-flu. This is good as it means I can complain about it all I want and there is reason for other people to listen and not assume I’m being a hypochondriac. Layla says its a proper […]

I sit typing this from the train home to London. I left Edinburgh only 15 minutes ago and already I’ve had a big sigh of joyous relief that I’m heading back. Yes there is some sadness its all over, but then I thought about how I’d feel if someone told me I had to spend […]

Edinburgh Day 29 – The End

  • Posted by: Tiernan Douieb

So that’s it. No more shows to do up in Edinburgh. I have just been to collect the very minimal props and few posters I had left from the Underbelly, and me and Layla watched as the pictures were torn down from the walls and the box office dismantled. There is something so horribly anti-climatic […]

Its the last day of my show today. Not ever. Well maybe ever, but we just don’t know. It feels like this day has been a long time coming, and yet now its here I feel a tad sad. It signals the end of Edinburgh and I have to admit its been a pretty amazing […]

Edinburgh Day 27

Today is really stupidly exciting and honestly very little else matters. My week has already been filled with encounters with people I’m not sure how to speak to or cope in the presence of, but today it excels to a new level. Yes I was unable to approach Reese Shearsmith or Eddie Izzard due to […]

Thank God its Friday. Although if there is any kind of super deity then they also created Monday’s too and that means we should be giving away any unnecessary thanks so soon. I however am very pleased its Friday. This means it is one step further to the eventual end of things. I don’t mean […]

Edinburgh Day 25

Layla arrives in about 4 hours, my show is in two and half hours, and so that gives me just about enough time to run around disinfecting our flat from its rancidness before she arrives. Its got pretty grim in certain areas. Well one area in particular, the bathroom. I’m not an untidy person, but […]
