I am referencing the Dylan song for a particular reason, as we are currently feeling the winds of change. Last night was a lovely evening with friends listening to 'I Don't Know' giving their final performance after providing many years of entertainment around our region, a bitter sweet experience. This and our own decision to *return to Scotland feels like the end of a chapter, with all the mixed feelings that can bring. Watching a familiar place shift around you can really drive home how nothing stays the same for ever.
Back to the evening itself which proved a bit of a challenge for the restaurant owners as it was originally intended to be more of an outdoor event but the inclement weather put paid to that. They were forced to turn people away and shoehorn as many as possible inside. For our party of seven this meant a table too up, close and personal to our friends in the band.
Jane, however, came up with the compromise of taking the tables outside and dining there with fingers crossed for the weather. This worked out fine and we moved back inside after eating.
Then it was a case of slightly jostling for space to appreciate the band.
Peter and I,and later Chris, took to the staircase with its great vantage point.
As I said a lovely evening though tinged with a little sadness.

Sounds like a wonderful evening. Your house is lovely and will make a great home for someone.
