Well yesterday was interesting, in a why the hell did anyone ever invent rugby kind of way. First me and Sandy got stuck in a bus behind 67500 rugby fans. They actually left the traffic lights on red for twenty minutes while they all filed past - how can a game be worth that! Also many of them were wearing bad nurse drag and orange wigs and stuff, which should be illegal.

Then we went to HMV and got classical music for Sandy and Waterstones where I got the first two Lemony Snicket books (love 'em) and had a coffee and a bun. And guess what? The 67500 fans weren't there - and they weren't to be seen when we came out either. They certainly managed to disperse into pubs and burger bars fast.

In the evening I did more BiCon stuff and then went to the Holyrood to see Nik, who's got a job that he wants after a long time getting a lot of hassle from the dole. So I felt I owed it to him to turn up and buy him a pint. This may have been a mistake. I was feeling low and tired from the various discussions I've been having with other people who are feeling low, and I worried about how I was going to get home given the rugby fans. In the end I left the pub at midnight and went to the High Street to queue for a cab.

( Guess how long it took me to get home? )
