Wired calls for the OS community to build a non proprietary social networking site a la Facebook.
But er isn't that LJ??
In other news: in bed with a bad head cold after a fairly sleepless night. Throat is sore and tummy weird. Pah!!!
Have to be ok by tonight as have tickets to see Adam Hills and Rich Hall with Snotnose's gang!!!
Last night: first show, Sean Lock, pretty good if a tad Anglocentric. JOkes about what a shit summer it's been ("only not such a surprise for you lot I suppose?"), the environment (ve-ry Home Counties), the smoking ban ("yes you've had it for a year here already but it's material isn't it?") I felt slightly embarrassed for himn. Very smooth comedy though. Also luverley yakitori, gyoyza and yakisoba at Bonsai. mm. One bottle of Sapporo made me feel v strange tho so i went home to cough and sniffle :(
Weekend past was lovely;![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lilitufire's welcome home lunch at Pancho Villas (shame I went to Viva Mexico first, wasn't it!!); King Kong and pizza at Andy's new and rather nice flat, surrounded by an infinity of boxes plus hyperactive ginger kitten; lots and lots of SLEEP; late lunch at Urban Angel with thishardenedarm and his pal "Don't Tell the Google" Ish at Urban Angel, dodging the Fringe parade traffic, and a long wistful walk through an almost autumnal Edinburgh past the galleries of Dundas Street and the restaurants of Stockbridge, along the Water of Leith and beyond the Modern Art Gallery. Came back and saw my first ep of Studio 60, which was brill - how long has it ben on C4?
