Edinburgh Festivals 2010

So the 2010 Edinburgh Festival Fringe is now over – there’s still six days left of the Edinburgh International Festival but I think I’m done – and about ready to collapse. I’m not going to review shows like last year – not sure I have the time. But here is a list of everything I’ve seen in the last month. As you can imagine I’m now skint – so will probably be a hermit for the month of September!
