Summary
This week Jenny is off to the Edinburgh Fringe; she and Judith reminisce about the late nights (and sometimes beds!) they've shared in Edinburgh over the years. Judith's had some diary confusion, a wasp invasion and lots of figs from the garden. All this and a bumper Culture Corner too!
Jenny and Judith are trying out some new segment ideas this week - please write in with any requests for the Culture Pharmacy or Things learnt for the first time over the week, our email is olderwiderpod@gmail.com
