The Fringe deserves much more of a commitment I think.

Adelaide has a 'Fringe' which is similar. We really enjoy it. The hardest thing is choosing what to see. Just understand that they are great, alternate artistic events. It is quite different to a traditional Arts festival - far less suits and much more 'relaxed' in clothing.
The commentary on Scotland so far has all the right golf elements, including possible side visits with Goodale, Bonnar, Pearce and co. And all the right visits to East Lothian and Fife that the day of the week allow. How about some elements with a little less golf?
Perhaps seeing St Andrews and The Old Course on a Sunday summers night, when it is a park accessable by the towns folk.
Perhaps seeing some of the highlands. Some of my favourite memories are the rocky mountains and lochs north-west of glasgow, and across to Inverness.
Perhaps a distillery or two. I recall literally stumbling across GlenLivet and Boat of Garten - a lovely visit.
And, a bit of artistic culture through the Fringe. Might not be Scottish, but it will be memorable (Bill McBride - what was that play that was on in St Andrews 5 years ago - was it fawlty towers?)
enjoy the trip and the golf Michael.
