A long table by the loch, a dram or two, a ceilidh after dinner — that's the plan.

How they met

A weekend in the hills — exactly the way I want to mark it.

No big party — just a long table by the loch, the friends who have walked with me, a dram or two, and a proper Highland ceilidh after dinner.

— bidh mi a' feitheamh ribh.
