Day 12 Edinblog: Injury.
🕑 Added 2016-08-15 00:50:31 +0000 UTC Today I woke up way too early, given that I didn't get to bed til 4. I woke up to say bye to my excellent friend Victoria, who had come to Edinburgh for the weekend, and was going out on the early (11am is early, okay) train.Then I went and walked up Arthur's Seat, and ended up slipping on a piece of grass that decided to heckle my foot. I banged up my knee, which is annoying given how much I need my knees for walking places and bending appropriately. Hoping it'll be better by tomorrow, as I'm averaging about 19kms a day of walking and occasionally sprinting around Edinburgh like an idiot. The view was pretty good though. So, totally worth it.
Then I went and watched a student play, which wasn't very good so I won't name it.
Then I did The Resistance to a lovely, warm, slightly undersized audience, before dashing across to The Pleasance to see John Hastings, who has an incredibly good and hilariously funny show. One long, absorbing narrative, a LOT of jokes, and a very impressive use of the space he's in and his body in that space. I recommend it.
Then I went back to The Gilded Balloon to do some finger-guns networking and swing by to give the Massaoke guys a hug.
Tomorrow's a busy day, so I'd better eat something and get some sleep. If I eat something now, that'll be two whole meals in one day! Well done Fraser.
Til tomorrow, punks.
