In this episode of A Kist o Wurds
Liam
Logan takes a run to Ballywalter for the first Ulster Scots festival put on in
this part of the Ards. Liz Weir and Willie Cromie are here storytelling, and
Risin’ Stour and the Donaghadee Fife and Drum Club are keeping the crowd
entertained with their music. Liam hears how the festival came about, and has
some crack with MC Ernie Dunbar. There’s a taste more from the low country when
Darren Gibson shares a wheen of thoughts on autumn, then to mark National
Poetry Day and this year’s theme of ‘light’, or ‘licht’ in Ulster Scots, there
are poems from Wilson Burgess and James Fenton. Â
