Not another festival
I'm saying: you'd have to be in the Glasgow area, but if you are, I'm hosting a couple of sessions at the first and maybe only, one-day BBC Film Festival on Glasgow Green this Sunday (September 9). It should be good fun anyway, with loads of free screenings and events throughout the day in some tents. My sessions are with three screenwriters - Jeremy Brock (Last King Of Scotland), Kevin Hood (Becoming Jane) and Gilles MacKinnon(Small Faces) - and a Q&A with the hugely talented David MacKenzie, director of Young Adam and Hallam Foe. My old friend Danny Wallace is compering the main stage, upon which Michelle McManus will perform! Crazy!

I'm away to Alton towers with 20 odd teenagers this weekend or I would have come. I hope it all goes well.
Oh I've just read the above. Obviously I meant that there are around 20, not that they are odd, although they can be a bit strange - oh well you know what I mean. I'll get me coat.
Bugger.
I shall miss your visit to the lovely Glasgow. Apparently me and my acute pancreatitis should get some rest this weekend. Have a good time in the lovliest city in the world.
Hey, I live in Glasgow! We Rock! I'll so be there! Is it ok to get my copy of "That's Me in Rhe Corner" signed or will I look like a mad stalker type! I do have a schizophrenia spectrum disorder but I'm not, in the last analysis, mad in the pejorative sense.
I reckon I live way too far south for everything, boo! Enjoyed Not Going Out last night though :-)
Local news: David Mackenzie will not be appearing at today's festival, but Antonia Bird and Mark Cousins will be discussing Scottish film, with Gillies MacKinnon, in his place. So it'll be fine.
My wife loves Mark Cousins but he just gets right on my thrupennies.
Enjoy your deep-fried alfalfa sprouts in Scotland's second city!!
