Well we moved into the flat in Edinburgh for my three week run at the Fringe Festival. The flat is awesome, so big and light and I love it. The good news is, it is just out of the city centre so the noise levels are fabulous. No screaming in the street outside like the flat last year!

My daughter Ashley and her mate Bobbi (cutest wee girl flyerer in Edinburgh) are in one room. Their wee faces last night after the first day of work was funny, both of them sitting up in bed taking make up off and watching the Gilmore Girls on DVD (An Edinburgh tradition).

Well I did my first show last night at the Pleasance. It went great; I had about 50 people in for the first night and one wee boy aged 11 years old. I didn’t panic about such a young kid being there but I did ask his mother if she was sure she wanted him to hear me swear a bit.

She said it was ok, so I went ahead with the show. I had a great time, there were reviewers in – I am not sure what they thought, but everyone there laughed loudly throughout.

My chat show at the Green Room opens today and my daughter is a guest! We also have the amazing Reginald D Hunter and Doktor Coca Coal McDonald. So it should be fun.

I did a big painting for Arthur Smith’s art collection and delivered it to his massive Georgian Town house Museum in Queen Street, where he is showing the Art.

Today I a going to busy but I will try to make sure I keep this blog updated at all times. Wish me luck.
