"Today Janice Forsyth pointed out to the audience and entire nation that the runners had been flirting with The Brothers Streep. Well, to be fair, I had. Shamelessly. We bonded over gooey muffins, which are almost as good as their Anna Paquin song. There aren't any songs about a girl called Catriona - I might mention this to them via their blog. Paul Higgins performed an extract from the new play Caledonia about Scotland's failed colony which I do remember learning about in school, an important reminder that, though we may have invented the telephone and the television, we can still be a bit rubbish at things like building empires and football. But that rant is for another time. Mrs Moneypenny said some naughty words and talked about her children as 'cost centres,' appropriate terminology for a financial expert. And the beautifully-coiffed Michael Zegarski knelt down on the stage in front of me and sang. I was on photo duty again today, and this gesture made for a gorgeous shot. He labels himself as a "singing actor" and is thus a very emotional performer. I've been meaning to go to Gillie Dhu for some time now, so tonight might be the night. In the meantime, we all prepare to say goodbye to Festival Café with in-house comedian Rob's last show commencing tomorrow at 1.15pm. We will also be saying a fond farewell to my fellow runners Fiona and Melanie, so though I'm looking forward to 1.15pm tomorrow, 2pm isn't looking so cheerful. What will we do with half the Festival Café runner team missing?! Sobbing over gooey muffins in the EICC café seems appropriate somehow."
