Articles by Andrew Bell
ANDREW BELL works as an Assistant Statistician in the Scottish Government, answering questions like “how many people work for the government?” (Answer: It depends on what you mean by “people”, “work” and “government”). He lives in a wee village outside Edinburgh, along with his fiancé, a somewhat elderly cat and a confusing number of children. He reviewed for ThreeWeeks at Festivals 2011 to 2014.
