This post made me squee so frequently that I had to read it to a very curious Jonathan. I love love love that you went to the Cafe Continental (and happy to hear that it's still there). Whenever I went in there, I wanted to order the large cappuccino (i.e. BOWL of it) because Jonathan was known for ordering it whenever he went in there for lunch.
And you talked about Silver Street and the green near the prison! And the fact that it actually rained; I suspect they ran out of virgins to sacrifice to the weather gods this year. ;-)
I love that there was a question put to you of 'and how did you hear of this event?'. Like you hadn't been attending it for decades. J and I would have had to answer, 'oh, we saw a brass band parading past our bedroom window and followed it...'
I miss you guys and I miss Durham. It's going to be so very nice to visit in December.
