Farewell Ailsa

Ailsa's off to Inverness to become a nurse tomorrow, so tonight is party time (again), this time at Em's. There's chilli and cake and assorted cocktails. A new beer shop has opened next door as well, so I have a selection of untried ales to taste. My favourite was Raging Bitch.

The kitchen is mobbed, but the front room is empty, despite (or because of) the decks. A brazier flames in the garden and there are large chunks of building wood, a hand saw and a hatchet for enthusiasts to work with. Now that's my sort of party.
