Robert Burns, also called Rabbie Burns and Scotland's favourite son, was born on Jan. 25, 1759, and grew up farming. But writing was his real calling. He wrote such poems and songs as Auld Lang Syne,often sung on New Year's Eve,A Red, Red RoseandScots Wha Hae,which once served as an unofficial Scottish national anthem.
This weekend, Fryer and many other local Scots will raise their glasses to pay tribute to the internationally celebrated Scottish icon. Sunday is Robbie Burns Day, and would have been his 250th birthday.
Two Barrie parishes-- St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church and St. Margaret's Anglican Church -- will hold celebrations this weekend to honour Burns' literary legacy. |

A Doctor on His rounds asks a Patient how He feels
The Patient replies
O Tam had'st thou but been sae wise,
As taen thy ain wife Kate's advice!
She tauld thee weel thou was a skellum,
A blethering, blustering, drunken blellum;
That frae November till October,
Ae market-day thou was nae sober;
That ilka melder wi the miller,
The Doctor says to the Nurse He will have to be moved to the Serious Burns Unit |
