Shock? Delayed responses? Guarded excitement?
It has been ten months since we all started our love affair with the
Dowans hotel in Aberlour, Scotland and although our hope centred on our
acquisition of the business and the beautiful building that houses it, we had
somewhat given it up after the long and often tumultuously emotional journey
that had led us to the date, the 22nd of October 2012. Our reaction when we
opened up the email that heralded the beginning of our future in the
picturesque village of Aberlour, located in the highlands of Scotland, was
therefore befitting of this long journey.
After some time, the shock has turned to eager anticipation,
delayed responses have transformed into renewed discussions of our plans and
our hopes for the business, and our guarded excitement has been replaced with
outbursts of joyful and often unending prose that we impose on anyone that will
stand long enough to listen!
We, the Murray family, are at the beginning of a journey that will
undoubtedly be tough at times requiring the most focused of work that we have
ever encountered as a family but it is with measured anticipation of the
potential for a successful business that we begin this journey together.
18th of December. Here we go.
18th of December. Here we go.
And here it begins.
