Hope this is OK to post.

"Can anyone help with accommodation in Edinburgh for the month of August please? I am performing my play there for the fringe festival. The apt I had sorted has just fallen through completely. The landlord died two weeks ago and we were not informed. His will is in probate and there is no way to stay there now. I am leaving on Sunday and as of 10 mins ago I have nowhere to stay. My dates are August 2nd to August 31st. Please share and let me know if there is anything out there. Thanks"
