9-13th August: Edinburgh baby!

This was a week of pure drunken silliness, most of the days were spent sleeping and recovering as every session went on till at least 5am. I will finish this off by posting a list of funny quotes from comedians I noted down over the week.

Firstly, I will just describe my favourite train journey ever. Me and Matt Forde (or Talk Sport’s Matt Forde) arranged to get the 11am train up together. We luckily managed to get a couple of seats next to each other on a train that was more packed than a pair of Speedos on a donkey. That simile was unnecessary but amusing. We were so excited to be getting up to the festival that we just fully got on the sauce. Living and drinking in London has made me conclude that train beers are not really that expensive. They cost less than £3, which is sadly an absolute steal nowadays. We listened to lots of cheesy music and sung it out loud including Black Eyed Peas, “I’ve got a feeling”. This song is an absolute corker, it can’t fail to make you happy and it has made my funeral play list. The other highlight of the journey was a batty old posh woman who shouted, “Fuck! Bloody British Rail” when she got on board. No one had the heart to tell her British rail no longer exists.

The quotations of the trip, which will mean nothing to most people:

-“That is one massive dad”- Pete Johansson after looking at snap of my dad

-“unnamed comedian…complete nutter that is a legend” (to the tune of Empire state of mind) invented/sung by Carl Donnelly

-“How has Mark Talbort not be stabbed to death yet?” Carl Donnelly about our mental mate

-“Milkers”

-“shit-catchers” for pants

-“I can excuse you for the whole night” Carl Donnelly reffering to someone who asked to be excused for a moment.

-“Fucking Bigger Laugh” Tom Stade

-“I’m going to knock his hair off” Mark Talbort

-“Just in case beers” Mick Ferry

-“Boobsday” (instead of Tuesday) me
