"A life without stories....

...would be no life at all".
Just walking in through the gates to the Edinburgh International Book Festival and becoming a part of the atmosphere where people laze in deck chairs or on the grass makes you feel you're part of a garden party that someone in the neighbourhood is throwing.

Took a jaunt to the Pleasance too, to see whats afoot. Not so much afoot as a-bum for that was the sight I saw, but hey, it's the Festival, what's new!
