Music of Scotland and A Burns Supper
Today, 25th January, is the anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, and today we’re bringing you a programme of traditional and modern music from Scotland (with plenty of bagpipes of course), and then, at 2pm Pacific Time/SLT (10pm GMT) we are presenting a complete Burns Supper, courtesy of the late-lamented Scots Independent Newspaper (a role these days taken by The National).
In addition, today sees a repeat of the Elven Forest edition of our original series, “Where Have You Been?”, where we discuss things to do and places to see around the Second Life Grid, at 12 noon and 4pm Pacific/SLT, 8pm and midnight in the UK. Plus, “Engines of Our Ingenuity“every four hours from 4am Pacific.
A Burns Supper
Yesterday, 25th January, was the anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, and today we’re bringing you a programme of traditional and modern music from Scotland (with plenty of bagpipes of course), and then, at 12:30pm and 4:30pm Pacific Time (8:30pm and 00:30 GMT) we are presenting a complete Burns Supper, courtesy of the late-lamented Scots Independent Newspaper. Yes, we’re a day late, but in fact a Burns Supper only needs to be more or less around the 25th — the Dundee branch of the Scottish National Party, for example, is having theirs on-line on February 5th!
In addition, today sees a new edition of our original series, “Where Have You Been?”, where we discuss things to do and places to see around the Second Life Grid, at 12 noon and 4pm Pacific, 8pm and midnight in the UK. In this episode, the second of our second series, we visit the Janus Galleries.
