Right from our arrival, the piper was there to play the guests into the hotel, as well as tunefully escorting the bridal party into the wedding feast. One of the finer sights at a Scottish wedding is the number of men in kilts and this was no exception! My friend had made one of the cakes (rich fruit) which was served at the late evening supper and of course I still had space to sample a slice, before dancing it off again.
With two consecutive weekends enjoying myself, it's going to be difficult to get back to work but I'd better get on with the adjudication I'm doing for a writing group before thinking about anything else.
Hope you all had a lovely Easter break,
Rosemary

Thanks for celebrating with us on such a joyous day - and for getting me onto the dancefloor after so many years as a wallflower. There is a rumour that there may be video evidence... I'd hoped to burn off the wedding meal too but haven't been able to resist those chocolate eggs ever since. Enjoy your little visitor! Catriona
Sounds idyllic, Rosemary. So pleased you all enjoy the lovely occasion. Have a great week.
Sounds like the perfect wedding, Rosemary. And we all need time off from time to time :)
How lovely to go to a real Scottish wedding, Rosemary. It sounds as if you had a wonderful time!
Sounds wonderful, and the Scottish certainly know how to celebrate. We experienced their hospitality when we lived near Dunfermline for a few years. As for getting back to work, writers are always working in their heads aren't they?
This sounds like a wonderful weekend, Rosemary. What a gorgeous wedding it must have been. I'm so glad you had a lovely Easter break and wish you lots of happy writing this week too. xxx
It was a delightful day, Catriona, and wasn't the dancing fun!
Thanks, Nicola - it was all lovely!
Absolutely, Mary - it's getting back into work mode that's difficult!
I love our Scottish weddings, Jean, and the men look wonderful in their kilts!
Glad you've had the Scottish experience, Maggie! You're right, writers find inspiration everywhere.
Many thanks, Joanna - after two fun weekends, I can't complain about getting back to some work!
Party on, Rosemary! It sounds as though you enjoyed a wonderful weekend and social gatherings are always great inspiration for writers. Count attending parties as research! :-)
What a fabulous venue. Congrats to all.
I certainly will, Rae - thanks for commenting!
Thanks, Julia - the venue added to the pleasure of the event!
What a wonderful place for a wedding. I love hearing about your outings, Rosemary.
Sounds a wonderful way to celebrate a joyous occasion, Rosemary, and a lovely venue to enjoy the wedding celebrations. :-)
