The Meath Writers' Circle were one of a number of local groups that were represented at the celebrations of "Burns Night" at the Silver Tankard in Navan on Friday night. January the 25th is the official night I believe, but allowing for weekend difficulties, etc. Willie G. Hodgins who is chairman of the Writers' Group is also closely involved with the above and always makes it along. Robbie wrote any number of songs and indeed it would be difficult to hold a Scottish gathering of any sort without a rendering of one of them at least. The Corries are one of Scotland's best known folk groups and I was gifted a collection of their tapes once upon a time by a MacLeod of the name. If you like the above there are plenty more on youtube and look for the opening of the Scottish Parliment. But that's not by the Corries. Anyway enjoy! With thanks to mandilanda6 for posting.
