power outages and sweltering heat

i'm guessing that a whole bunch of you have been internet-less for the last couple of days due to the power outages in ontario and the states. how crazy is that? i was talking to my mates here and we had a whole conversation about what would happen if the power just went out. would there be rioting? would there be mass pandemonium? it's a nice wake-up call to our dependency on technology and how much of our world is really out of our control. a good reminder...

here in edinburgh the temperatures continue to soar. our venue is a little black box and upon having numerous shows in it over the course of a day and then seating 140 people for our show with two hours of dancing, it becomes a sauna. i think i've lost two stone in the last week alone. shear craziness!

we keep selling out, i keep enjoying the relaxed atmosphere here and the friendly people. no sign of a probably pull though, which is disappointing. anyway, i love the lie-ins, the time to read for my dissertation and the random conversations...
