People often talk about ‘Fringe Flu’ but it’s not affected me since 1992.
Until last night! Suddenly my nose is blocked, eyes streaming. I’ve not had a cold for years! Great. JUST what you want when presenting a very ‘sociable’ event like our Literary Pub Crawl!
But I manage not to sneeze over our lovely – and actually quite large – audience and in spite of me still feeling uncomfortable after killing my babies (see yesterday’s mini blog) they are very appreciative at the end. Not much drinking, but a lot of laughter and applause!
But I feel a bit exhausted and forget to take our ‘school photo’ of the group which is a shame. One of the attractions of the Literary Pub Crawl is how sociable it gets. I don’t have a drink at all and drag me sorry derrière back to the digs after the show. ‘Fringe Flue’ is usually bought on by not looking after yourself. I’m normally aware of this, but realise the pressure of this show may have distracted me somewhat.
I’m cheered though by our first review! I’ve not been looking for ’traditional’ reviews because, as you know, I’m still working on the concept. But this appeared on Facebook.

“Nick’s tour was so much fun! If you are at the Fringe this year, I’d say it’s a must-do.”
I don’t know who Chris is… but thank you very much!
