100 Words: The Bandstand Transportation Mistake

“Where are we?”

A moment before the band had been playing in Brenchley Gardens; now they were somewhere completely different.  Or almost- they were still in a bandstand; and still seemed to be in Britain.  But without mobile reception.  And at night.

They deliberated and discussed.  Could this be a wizarding error (they were certainly not unknown), they wondered, could what they played have triggered transportation?

They struck up once more.

Every few tunes they moved, made a note.  After six hours they got back.  But two years too early.

“How long will this take?” they moaned before starting again.
