A Wonderful Evening


The International Night at the library was fantastic!
Thai dancing, French accordion music, an Irish song, poems in Hungarian, Frisian, Gaelic and Polish were just some of the highlights of a night which fairly buzzed with cultural diversity. After the performances and some refreshments (Orkney and Shetland beer and Shetland fudge) we cleared the chairs to one side and danced The Gay Gordons, the Hungarian czardas and a Greek circle dance…All that dancing was thirsty work, so a  large group of us repaired to Da Lounge bar to carry on the night’s festive cheer into the wee small hours.  We should do this more often…
