For The Secret Romantic In You
You all set for Valentine's Day then? Bought the card? Ordered those flowers? Booked that
romantic kebab-for-two at the 3-in 1?
Now don't give me no lip about Valentine's Day being a huge scam designed to make oodles of loot for card shops. We all know that's true, but look on the bright side: how often do we get the chance to give vent to our secret passions without a police investigation and subsequent restraining order?
I mean, there's precious little romance left in this world, don't you think? These days a gentleman can't even kiss a lady's hand without her reaching for a little bottle of antiseptic gel and ruining the moment.
But worry not love-lovers, because ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Scotland is coming to the rescue yet again thanks to our ever-growing archive of Burns poetry. This year we've compiled a small selection of Rabbie's most romantic works and we're making it easy for you to send a link to anyone or everyone you fancy.
The poems are all voiced by some of Scotland's most famous actors and you can even deploy Prince Charles with his rendition of My Luve Is like a Red Red Rose.
But if that doesn't snap your elastic then there's Brian Cox, Hannah Gordon, Robbie Coltrane, Bill Paterson, Daniela Nardini and many more.
We supply the poems and you do the rest.
Just, don't blame us if he or she tells you they'd much rather have had a kebab.
