Hey guys,
I spoke to the lady today that I know from Leith. She is unfortunately not connected with the Leith festival and says she thinks all the slots for stalls and events will be booked already for it. HOwever she is trying to set-up a sort of Leith 'fringe' festival that is more run by local people and would like us to do something for that. She is having a meeting on Wednesday to discuss her proposal so as soon as I hear anymore I will let you all know,
