Haggis, battered or canned and music for a wee birl round the room for Burns night
Guest Brian Cassidy – President of the Belfast Burns Association – joins the team to chat about the celebration of Burns night on January 25th.
Helen Mark, Rab Lennox and Jonnie Crawford are joined by guest Brian Cassidy, President of the Belfast Burns Association to talk about the annual commemoration of the Bard of Ayrshire, Robert (Rabbie) Burns.
A feature of the traditional event is a meal of haggis, neeps and tatties, but Jonnie heads to Bushmills to experience a different way of enjoying a haggis supper while Rab reflects on another way to ‘enjoy’ haggis when isolating at home.
Sharon and Kenny from the Alastair Scott Ceilidh Band keep the toes tapping with a wee bit of music as they look forward to getting out to play for events again.
The team love to hear from listeners with their comments about the programme, or with a yarn or song or poem to share or an Ulster-Scots event to promote. You can contact them at kintra@bbc.co.uk.
