Shottle Hall, Rebecca and Darran

Rebecca and Darran cut the cake.














 This was our first time at Shottle Hall for the wedding of Rebecca and Darren. We first met Darren at one of our regular Burns night dances in Ashbourne. As it was such a small room we decided to play with acoustic guitar and without drums which gave the evening a really intimate atmosphere.

For some reason or other the rather impressive chandelier reminded Collin of an episode of Only Fools and Horses. I had my own senior moment during the night when I though Collin asked us to play for the Little Blue Reel which in the event turned out to be the Virginia Reel. I think Little Blue Reel would be a good name for a dance – someone should write one.
