This evening we were invited to The Edinburgh Experiment, a party for Google City Experts at the Small Animal Hospital in Summerhall.

It was the perfect venue with creepy derelict corridors leading in to rooms filled with leftover medical equipment.

We were given labs coats and were known as Professor Cat Morley and Doctor Tom Waddington for the evening.

We picked up cocktails from the Cage Bar, which were served in beakers and told to put sweets in them to make them extra fizzy.

It was then photo time in the photo booth with props and geeky glasses.

It was then time for the Gastronomy experiment being served in the dining room by Jelly + Gin.

We tucked in to a bowl of tasty Thai broth served with a syringe of liquid noodles which would solidify as you squirted them in to the soup.

After dinner, we ventured in to the next room which was filled with desserts including space ice cream, edible insects and chocolate truffles which you could spray with edible perfume to change the taste.

We gave the insects a miss, using vegetarianism as an excuse and experimented with the various scents of edible perfume.

We saved the best dessert until last which was jelly gin.

It basically eating a gin & tonic and a super strong one at that.

In the next room, two boffins showed us how to extract DNA from a strawberry and then had us drink it in a shot of Bacardi.

Back in the Cage Bar, we tucked in to one last cocktail and attempted to lock Tom in an old animal cages before heading home with a goody bag filled with popping candy.

Tonight was Google's Galactic Gala at Summerhall and I had a +3 so Kenny and Laura joined us too. It was a space themed party being held as part of the Science Festival.

There was sorbet made with liquid nitrogen, space snacks and gin & tonics sprinkled with popping candy.

There was all kinds of experiments, robots to try, things to make and even a planetarium.

Our favourite part was trying on space suits though they were very difficult to get in too and even harder to breath in.

As a special treat for City Experts, we got to have our heads scanned and 3D printed.

It was hard keeping still with the same pose for so long while I was being scanned but it was fun watching the 3D printer build me up from nothing.
