"more clever than funny".

So yeah Edinburgh Fringe is basically the best thing ever right?

Here’s my edited highlights;

• Chatting in made up sign language
• Heath McIvor standing in the pouring rain for 10 minutes to cheer up my flyering day. Everyone said he was lovely; he is definitely lovely.
• While typing this I just remembered telling someone how amazing Heath was then turning round to find Sammy J. 
• Flyering Matt Forde and having a daft chat on Twitter.
• Being recognized from Twitter by Stuart Goldsmith. 
• Being recognized from Twitter is a thing now, five people after that did so. How is this a thing? I still don’t get it. 
• Ben Pappy’s dancing. 
• Having a two hour conversation with one of my favourite comedians - this could only happen in Ed. Everyone consequently taking the piss, asking when I’m visiting him etc? - check!
• Getting in to see The Unbelievable Truth recording, thanks Lloyd!
• Learning comedians keep track of how many times you see them in a month as well as the other way around. “You can have a sweet, you’ve seen me three times this month”.
• Free pizza from Dylan Moran.
• Jarred Christmas buying me a Fanta, honestly it was much needed at the time.
• It took me all month to speak to Michael Legge. I said hi and ran off afterwards.
• Thom Tuck is the best. Straight to DVD, a year late but amazing. Flips out was good too. Plus you know his face. Definitely guilty of babbling at him for five minutes after #stDVD.
• Tommy Little is now one of my favourite people.
• Listening to podcasts from Edinburgh becomes weird when you know the stories that can’t be talked about on air.
• Jim Smallman’s Group Therapy and Comedian’s Comedian were the best things to do at lunchtime.
• Elis James’ dancing.
• Sitting on the floor of Brooke’s Bar at 3am being introduced to comedians.
• One of my bosses telling me I had a niche taste in comedy.
• Forever getting and losing badges.
• Forever being excited by the appearance of Tim Key.
• The moment when everyone I worked with got excited by Paloma Faith, me being unmoved then getting overexcited by Alex Horne and everyone else being disinterested.
• People randomly starting conversations about Deal or No Deal with me when in the company of Mark Olver.
• Prick! being your favourite show, and too many people getting confused in conversation by this. 

My favourite quote of the festival; “Lora I think you know more about comedy than me.” Thanks, Lloyd.

As you reach the end of the post it is probably wise to note this from Shappi Khorsandi:

But having said that please feel free to ask me lots of things about Edinburgh because it was amazing. Same time next year?
