Robbie Burns Day … Week
Robbie Burns Day Week:
Your Southsiders Director of Events, Wendy Turnbull, has worked with Doolin’s to put together several social events for our members next week. First Kick is just over a month away so this is a perfect time for us to get together, talk about the upcoming season, and celebrate Robbie Burns Day.
Let other poets raise a fracas “Bout vines, an’ wines, an’ drucken Bacchus, An’ crabbit names an’stories wrack us, An’ grate our lug: I sing the juice Scotch bear can mak us, In glass or jug.
