Cutty Wren Folk Club
Burns Night
29 Jan 2004
Guest: Tich Frier 

1.        Elaine started the night with a poem:

A Vegetarian's Plea

We don't mind if you want to eat meat.
Eat as much as you like.
Eat beef, bacon, steak or lamb,
Even liver, kidney, pork and ham.
We know it's Burns Night,
And haggis is the thing.
But we'd like to celebrate too!
We're sure Burns wouldn't mind.
So thanks for the bean stew,
Lentil burgers and nut roast,
And even cheese on toast?


and followed it  with Dundee Weaver & Cotton Mill Girls.

2.       Gordon gave us a couple of whistle tunes from North of the Border,

3.       Ann finished the first part of the evening with Bunch of Thyme and The False Bride.

4.       Then it was time for the wee Scots Laddie himself.

5.       Aye, he cuts a fine figure!

6.       The life of Robbie Burns should have been a serious toast but it was Tich after all! Not a dry seat in the house!

7.       The Haggis is piped in. Has he noticed that the pipes are English?

8.       Addressing the Haggis. Is there no more? I could eat this lot myself!

9.       The aroma has got to him: he’s in full flow now!

10.   Stabbed!

11.   I think I’ve cut my finger!

12.   I’ll Just get rid o’ some o’ this grease.

13.   Back! It’s all mine!

14.   Doon in one!

15.   Bonnie Highland Laddie from Jane (or is it a touch of indigestion?).

16.   Mick Gardiner sang Dainty Davy in honour of the Bard.

17.   A rare visit from Di Henderson. Her magnificent voice did justice to When fortune turns the wheel.

18.   Raffle time. Sue draws the tickets for the 9 prizes which include a bottle of Bells Whiskey and Taylor’s Port.

19.   Tich was up to prove that a couple of very large drams makes you sing louder.

20.   Addressing the Ladies.

21.   The toast to the Ladies (and any other excuse to have a drink).

22.   The evening is over. And it’s goodnight from John…

23.   …and it’s one more from Tich.
