Here is the latest update from Gavin Inglis re Underword.
Tue 24th Aug is a double blow of performance poetry with Anita Govan
and Laura Hainey. West coast wit meets east coast energy.
Wed 25th Aug is Dirty Words, a sex-themed charity night in aid of the
Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, which will not shy away from the
f-word, c-word or indeed outright porn. Two Bloc readers and you can
probably guess which ones.
Thu 26th Aug is Stefan Pearson with stories of salt air and drunken
sailors. You might have heard some of these before but you won’t have
heard his take on the real truths behind the decline of the Scottish
fishing industry.
Fri 27th Aug is Writers’ Bloc. We almost have a programme ready!
Sat 28th Aug is the closing night, a hell for leather rush through as
many readers as I can cram into 45 minutes.
Underword is 19.50-20.40 at Fingers Piano Bar, Frederick Street.
http://underword.co.uk/ and admission is FREE.
You may also enjoy Alba Ad Astra, an exhibition about the Scottish
space programme, at Transreal Fiction in the Grassmarket.

Thanks for mentioning my exhibition, Jack. Have you had a chance to see it yourself? If not you can see all of the photos at http://www.madeleineshepherd.co.uk along with some of the background story.

Thanks for your comment Madeleine.
No. I had hoped to but I’ve not managed to get through to Edinburgh, yet.
