Self-immolation by train (Rousse)
I eventually found the emergency phone number on the LNER web site. ‘Please come quickly!’ I urged. ‘The passenger seated behind me in Coach E on the 6pm Glasgow to London service is trying to set fire to herself!’
Glasgow comedian in conspiracy to catch MSP with pants down (Rousse)
TPR and I fell in with Glasgow comedian mop-haired Jello and his crowd on tour in Germany. When TPR wandered off, I ended up alone with Jello and a few of his German friends in a château for an evening … Continue reading
A missed opportunity to bed Chris Addison (Rousse)
I deeply regretted missing the chance to sleep with my co-star Chris Addison, but this partly my own doing. I should have refused to meet CS in a Glasgow hotel to spend an afternoon downing gin and rum cocktails as … Continue reading

Short shorts on a fat body (Rousse)

A wandering whiteboard and a late PhD submission (Rousse)
After all the expense of transporting it, I returned to Edinburgh from Glasgow without my precious mini whiteboard. It was fortunate that my cousin EB had a suitcase large enough to carry it back to Bristol by plane, although I … Continue reading

Mystery childhood relic unearthed in Glasgow (Rousse)
SC and I ‘picked up’ the Glasgow University academic just outside Queen Street station. Rather than catch our train back to Edinburgh, we followed him across town to his office, intrigued by an invitation to consult his exercise book. In … Continue reading

From garden wall antics in North Berwick to ballroom dancing at Glasgow Queen Street (Rousse)
I hoped that that those travelling in the morning traffic out of North Berwick towards the A1 and west into Edinburgh passed by at a sufficient speed not to notice our antics on a stranger’s garden wall. Afterwards we considered … Continue reading
Last minute accommodation in Glasgow (Rousse)
The timing of the AGM at midnight assumed that all participants were also delegates at the conference with overnight accommodation booked in Glasgow. This was not the case for me and CW. We had travelled over from Edinburgh for the … Continue reading
