January

[eddie]

i hate january its cold and you have to go back to uni.

so curb this i embarked on two missions

1. Purchase of Megaphone
The fourth one i've had!!! i think the problem kitch has with socks i have with megaphones

2.Register Andy's flat as a fringe venue

Hi there

to be honest with you every year the fringe comes to edinburgh and it kinda
ruins that natural balance that edinburgh has. i know it promotes art which can
only be a good thing coming from the west midlands which does its best to
destroy art and it also makes bar,restraunt owners, taxi drivers and the like
afford their two weeks in marbella early septmeber. i think the best time
edinburgh has is just after the fringe when all the tourists and the performers
have gone and the students have yet to come back the weather still average. its
peaceful. i like it. anyway to combat this i was hoping to have an entry as a
venue for the fringe. i want to open up my flat as a venue for people to come
round and see what the residents do when the place gets invaded. so i guess it
would be a show and venue rolled into one.i live near the seat so they can
combine it with mounting an everest expedition on 'Edinburgh's Mountain'. also
i want one of those large becks signs. thank you for letting me waste time and i do expect a genuine reply

Dear Edward

Thanks for your enquiry.

I suggest you register with us on edfringegroups.com. Here you'll find
information on how to get your event into the Fringe programme. One thing to
consider is the health and safety implications of opening your flat to the
general public - fire escapes, public liability insurance etc. If these are
not strictly adhered to you will be shut down. You can buy our book - How To
Be Fringe Safe from our shop on the Royal Mile which has all the information
you need on running a public space.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best regards

Andy

could go either way methinks

thanks for that eddie, you've brightened my day no end.

Does this mean we will now have to pay entrance fees to get into the nope meetings tho?

bring on the banterphone antics 2005.

[eddie]

you know it makes sense

[rocky]

and how would they 'shut down' your flat?

[eddie]

with those bank of scotland edinburgh fringe rock steady stewards of course?

Hah Ha Ha - and he hasn't even mentioned the possibility of catching some life-threatening disease. To be honest eddie - i think you have more chance of getting on "How clean is your house" another favourite from the Mrs H.'s classic viewing collection. Ha ha ha

you mean getting the mcadams round?

Have to consider refreshment as well.

In the random process that is "picking films out of the big pile on my desk waiting to be developed", I've just got some back of the Fresher's Alc-O, and subsequent gathering at the flat. Pyrat looks quite the barman, with an array of quality beverages arranged on your ironing board.

I suspect TURBO BRUNTON! would be a quite considerable health and safety issue.

"How clean is your house" another favourite from the Mrs H.'s classic viewing collection.

Oh No!! I sense that we are going to have tent inspections every morning at the JK and anyone whose tent doesn't meet with Mrs H's exacting standards will be nominated for a visit by Kim and Aggie.

(Maybe I shouldn't give her ideas)

i think she might be right

[Mrs H.]

meet with Mrs H's exacting standards

Well as few of you are likely ever to see the insides of my house I shall allow this rumour to persist

Mind you that doesn't mean you would not be welcome at 'The Brink' any time you were passing

You don't have layers of dust that you can write in, you just have organised piles of papers, maps, magazines etc all ready to be distributed somewhere, yours is a 'working home'. Even the shopping is organised in boxes, I haven't yet seen the children in boxes, maybe when they were younger!!!!
