I’m off to a Burns Supper tonight, possibly the last one of the entire season. I have to give the ‘immortal memory’. Normally, I don’t like these much but I’m using it to say that everyone should read poetry - not just Robert Burns, but contemporary poetry – because we are diminished as individuals and as a society when good contemporary poetry is largely unread by otherwise intelligent people. I’ll find out how that goes down…(!)And yes, there will be dancing. And a very cheap bar. I have to work tomorrow morning. Remember…remember… I have to work tomorrow.
