good night

I don't get out after dark very often. But tonight I made it all the way to Haddington with 4 mates. We had a Chinese meal (pretty good) and then went to Lennoxlove House for a hootenanay. That was slightly over-billing it, really. It was a band called The Picts, several of whom are old friends of my pal, Cat. They had been booked for "a concert" but when they arrived they discovered it was a ceilidh. Sadly, no-one had told the people who bought the tickets, because very few of them wanted to dance. Confused? So were they.

Anyway, it was a good night and we resolved to get out together more often. There was talk of going to Krakow next time (well, Ola is Polish). I thought we'd been quite adventurous going to Haddy, but who knows? It's going to be an expensive taxi home, though.
