Amid the Fringe frenzy, Lindsay Weir, Colin Garvin, Martainn Skene and I headed to Heather On The Hill Festival at the Royal Highland Showground on Saturday to entertain the masses. It was lovely to work with a three-piece band for once and certainly made a change to be directing the dancing in what turned out to be a croissant-shaped dance floor, but a good time was had by all and I found my way back to the car eventually! Thank you for asking us along.

We're more or less sold out this morning (Sunday) at The Free Edinburgh Fringe Festival at The Counting House - might be able to squeeze in one walk-in family but that's all. Plenty of space during the week though!

No dancing today at The Counting House but a huge thank you to 'Dad' for his lovely review on the Fringe website... 'Great fun to show my 4 yo son what ceilidhs are about! Very well explained and guided. Good length of time to enjoy without being too much.'
See you tomorrow (Thurs) for a dance?
