Your Valentine Problem Solved

Here's how you can find true love this weekend. Or, at least, avoid losing it. I mean, you've obviously left it too late to send a Valentine's Day card and those novelty e-mails just don't have the same kind of charm. Fear not, I have the solution. Just download our latest Burns podcast and you can send your partner (or prospective partner) a rendition of My Luve is Like a Red, Red, Rose as performed by Brian Cox.

It is, of course, part of our ever-growing Burns audio archive on the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Scotland Robert Burns website which, last month, received more than half a million page impressions. The top five poems and songs requested were:

Address to a Haggis
My Luve is Like a Red Red Rose
My Heart's in the Highlands
To A Mouse
Tam O'Shanter

I'm guessing the more romantic pieces will rise to the top during February, but romance can often end in heartbreak and disappointment, so To A Louse might grow in popularity later in the year.
