EDINBURGH FESTIVAL
THE fESTVAL STARTS HERE. . .
Edinburgh is looking out its party hat as the 1998 Festival hits town. In August, there's only one place to be — the Scottish capital — and only one place to read all about it. The next four issues of The List — published weekly on Thursday 6, 13, 20 and 27 August — will tell you everything you want to know about the world's biggest arts festival. Until then, here's a sixteen-page taster of the
delights to come. Name: Al Murray,
