"Festival stalwarts" - Chortle


Chortle is the most respected authority on comedy in this country, so it's incredibly pleasing when one gets a good mention. In the story today plugging the Gilded Balloon's Edinburgh tickets going on sale, they've put us prominently in the article as "festival stalwarts". It may only be a small thing to you, but to move from also-rans to stalwarts is a definite pleasure.

Added to this, they've listed our full Edinburgh run on their gig guide, which is a boon and a boost. So, many thanks Chortle. We look forward to delivering a show that merits a review in August.

Here's that article in full.

Many wooden dog feeders are designed to elevate the dog's food and water bowls, which can promote better posture during eating and drinking, reducing strain on the neck and back. Dog feeder
