Tonight its Burns supper night (again)-that time of year here in Ayrshire, birthplace of the Bard. A vegan one this time, so looking forward to the food. Actually, I was just at the Alloway Burns Club supper in the same venue so I know the food will be good. How will the Toast to the Lassies speech be used? Time will tell. Saturday’s was by Alloway church’s minister Neil McNaught who was very funny. I sing with their wee choir- we do it for love not talent, though we do have Bruce Kennedy’s lovely tones to help us. He sings with Luath. Karen who conducts us can aye keep us right. So since I was in the moos and wandering old Alloway’s footpaths, I started singing, like you do, and taped some in the underpass- hence the sound.
Just because today its the Bard’s birthday.
