The Edinburgh festival is on at the moment. The place is a buzz, masses of people walking the streets admist the theatre, comedy and street performance. The Military Tattoo one of the main events, with large amounts of seating constructed at the base of the castle. Have spent the last few days, sometimes in the sun, sometimes under the cloud taking it all in, walking the Royal Mile in the old town. Days have been made up of seeing whats around, finding my place and watching numerous performances. The melloncollie of Bagpipes fill the air, the beating of drums rumble along the stone streets, a clash of culture, performance and ideas strung together to produce something great. Have tickets to see Jimeon tonight with Sticksy, Suze and Elicia.

It was a big night last night, most of ther crew from Sticksy's place as well as other friends and whatever headed to a brewery for a night out of drinking and traditional Scotish dancing. Loads of fun with a great crew. My dancing skills weren't up to scratch to begin with but by the end of the night myself and Croughy we're cutting up the dance floor and had people watching us in awe!!

Ended up at some overly crowded Irish Pub (Is there anywhere in the world where these things don't exist?) for a few more afterwards then we walked home. Fell alseep on the couch.

The new U2 single has made it's way into the world. Great Chorus!

Electrical Storm
The sea is swells like a sore head
and the night it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
and the day it is breaking

On rainy days we go swimming out
on rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days we go swimming out

You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
if the sky can crack
there must be some way back
for love and only love

Car alarm won't let you back to sleep
you kept awake dreaming some else's dream
coffee is cold, but it will get you through
compromise, there's nothing new to you
let's see colours that have never been seen
let's go to places no one else has been

You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
if the sky can crack
there must be some way back
to love and only love

Electrical Storm
Baby don't cry

It's hot as hell, honey in this room
sure hope the weather will break soon
the air is heavy, heavy as a truck
hope the rain will wash away our bad luck

If the sky can crack, there must be some way back
for love and only love

Electrical Storm
Baby don't cry
