Le Bon David and The VeloDrone are pleased with the way their act is shaping up. The only problem is their allotted tent is very small. They approach the Manager of The Garden Of Unearthly Delights.
Le Bon David: It's fine for the stand-up. But there's no way it's going to accommodate our bicycle tricks.
The VeloDrone: Yes, we need a bigger tent.
The Manager: Sorry boys. But you were lucky to get any tent at all. And we didn't know about the bicycle tricks, we thought you were stand-up philosophers. What sort of bicycle tricks do you do?
Le Bon David: Oh you know, the usual ones, Slides, Wheelies, Bunnyhops, Endos, Trackstands, Curb-hops.........with a philosophical twist.
The Manager: Well, I can only suggest that you go outside the tent and start busking in the East End.
The VeloDrone: Us, busking! Do you know who we are?
The Manager: Yes, yes, David Hume and Voltaire, it says here. Enlightenment philosophers. Nothing about bicycles. See?
The VeloDrone: We are the editors of the online magazine Velosophy.
The Manager: Oh? You guys can write then? Would you like to earn a bit of extra money?
The VeloDrone: No.
Le Bon David: Yes. Since we seem to be losing our free tent.
The VeloDrone: Alright then, yes. What do we have to do?
The Manager: Just write a few Fringe reviews for us. Here's a few free tickets to a bunch of shows.
Le Bon David and The VeloDrone: ( in unison) Thanks!
