Edinburgh wrap up! pt 1
well now that i'm in bolonga, i suppose i better catch up a bit with things before i forget!
edinburgh was great. i ate so much, and according to meico it's just filled with great restaurants. he might very well be right on that account.
the night i landed we hit a Chinese place, followed by a group dinner at a Japanese restaurant for teppanyaki (i already posted some fotos in LJ).
But here's a few more of the guys tossing eggs because Fiona's camera is better than mine:
The following night was all about Korean. I invited Barrie & Fiona to come try it with me and I was so happy to find that it was actually really good and not crazy expensive - it seems that the London KBBQ joints are a bit more costly.
I added a review on google - (author: Kumi) I thought the place was yummy enough to deserve one. Plus, it's one of only two Korean places in all of Scotland - or so i hear. The other is in Glasgow and run by the same owners ;-)
i ate soooo much!

The next day I headed over on the train to Glasgow for my shoot with Ruth(less photography) ;-)
I took the obligatory photo with the cone-headed horse guy as we walked from the train station to the studio.
After the shoot we walked over to wait for Barrie & Fiona for more yummy food at the Red Lizard pub.
I was told not to eat anything so instead i ended up putting a lil bit of JD into my belly.
oops.
Miss Ruthless didn't stay for dinner. B & F & me walked over to the Dhabba for super dooper yummy Indian.
nom nom nom!
Had a day off so ended up catching up with emails. But in the evening B n I headed into town so I could play tourist while F went to her aerial class to be fit n stuff. Did the Mary King's Close underground tour and it was actually quite nice and didn't leave you feeling ripped off.
The ground was all done up nice with wooden floors and it actually seemed quite clean and decently lit so there was no feeling of being lost which is kind of what i was hoping for - that and a sense of extreme claustrophobia to go with the disorientation, but no luck. In the end it was still pretty cool. After the tour, we waited for Fiona in a pub n then got burgers. They had A & W rootbeer and funny shaped onion rings...
After dinner we headed back to the car and got on the road to Livingstone :-)

The next day was a shooting day. And it was an outside shooting day too! BRRRR!
I ran around a brickworks wearing a latex catsuit which wasn't very helpful in keeping me warm. gah!!!
Took a little siesta afterwards and then we headed out to meet up with meico and ayia for
ascension_club
but before that B & F took me to the newsroom to wait for their friend who was going to play gawth with us.
