scottish blogger's dinner

zzzzzz7654156.jpg

My train made it to Glasgow safely.

Usually when I come to Glasgow, the first thing Dave and I do is hit the bars [It's that Scottish thing]. But we're too busy with Hallam Foe these days. Something to do with growing up. Whatever.

David is currently under a lot of pressure with the final edit. Meanwhile, I have the bloggers movie screening in London to get arranged [I'm now thinking Thursday, the 21st September, as Dave can't make it down to London on the 14th].

Glasgow is one of my three favorite cities [the other two being Paris and New York]. Unlike Paris or New York, it doesn't exactly have a stunning skyline. But the people are vibrant, friendly and unpretentious, with lots of interesting stuff going on. It suits me here.

[IDEA:] Scottish blogger's dinner here in Glasgow? Anybody up for it? If so, drop me an e-mail, thanks.

I'm in Newcastle, so I could make it at a stretch...

If I was a blogger (rather than a blogconsumer) I'd come (from Edinburgh - nuff said?)

Hey Hugh,
If you are in Glasgow on September 22nd, I'm in Glasgow for a night on my way back from Islay, and headed to the Pot Still that night.
