Looking forward to seeing Matt's show this evening... and I would strongly recommend this (very funny) (and scary) ghost tour if you are in Edinburgh cityofedinburghtours.com/all-tours/famo…

Sure, my show is getting good reviews. But did I mention that the venue is also air conditioned? See you in there Edinburgh! pleasance.co.uk/event/getting-…

Make sure you catch one of Matt's other shows if you are in Edinburgh this month ... but just not tonight.

Sadly, my show at the #EdFringe has been can cancelled tonight because the wind is consistently above the safety rating of the venue awnings. Which leaves a mere 21 shows left to go. pleasance.co.uk/event/getting-…
