Decided to properly kick-start the Fringe with a walk up and down the Royal Mile, where you can find all type of performers, hundreds of people giving you flyers, thousands of tourists… I think there should be no Fringe day without a Fringe-walk down the Fringe-Royal Mile… It is absolutely amazing. Took my camera today, just to share with you guys what we encountered in our Fringe-afternoon (does the word Fringe in front of things make it all more special? I didn’t have a normal afternoon, no sir. I had a Fringe-afternoon!) Aaaanyways…
This is just one example of what you can find in the Royal Mile any given day in August:

Some random guys doing some… random stuff… It was all very random indeed… but not just random though! It was Fringe-random!
After an hour, we had to dash (Fringe-dash?) to see Tom Allen at the Gilded Balloon (recommended people! Read the review) so we took a picture of all the flyers we got given:

That is a lot of flyering! Next time I shall take a suitcase with me, you end up with your hands full of papers! And I’m one of those guys that keeps everything till the end of the Fringe, which means loads of flyers around my room for three weeks!
So, after Tom Allen’s show, we ended up bagging two free tickets to see Fiona O’Loughlin, who turned out to be quite good (had never heard of her to be honest…), and after that, we went for a cheeky drink (we deserve it! We work hard!) at the Gilded Balloon’s bar:

As you can see, it’s press passes on the ready, newspapers, magazines, flyers and our pint of Strongbow… All in all, amazing day! We did call it a night after the one drink though (more reviewing tomorrow) mainly because this is what a drink does to us:

For the record, that is not me… It’s just one our reviewers… Bed time for him I say! Or is that Fringe-bed time…?
