A2.Not the bee upon the blossom, In the pride o' sinny noon; Not the little sporting fairy, All beneath the simmer moon; Not the Poet in the moment Fancy lightens in his e'e, Kens the pleasure, feels the rapture, That thy presence gies to me- #ScotlandHour #CelebrateBurnsNight
A1 The Routin Bridge: a magical setting with rushing waterfalls & hidden legends: one story from the early 1600s concerns an unfortunate wise-woman who met a grim fate. Another tells of a woman linked to the infamous Rerrick Poltergeist! #TalesofScotland #YS2022 #ScotlandHour
A1. Our favourite stories are those that bring alive the history and culture of our local area.

A2. The Birks of Aberfeldy. ‘Bony lassie, will ye go, Will ye go, will ye go; Bony lassie, will ye go’. Our colleagues in @cpklibraries will surely agree!

A2. Our Breadalbane Community Library is a wee jaunt from the ACTUAL Birks of Aberfeldy, so it has to be the entirety of The Birks of Aberfeldy.

A2 @ScotlandHour While in Midlothian Burns visited the Old Roslin Inn (now College Hill House) next to @RosslynChapel about which, and where, he wrote the below. One of our claims to Burns fame in Midlothian! #ScotlandHour #YS2022 #TalesOfScotland #CelebrateBurnsNight
A1 #scotlandhour Plenty of stories about John O’Groats but for starters the first people to walk LEJOG were 2 brothers in 1870… #YS2022 #TalesofScotland

A2: I’m in southern Scotland @HereScotland & of course this is a land of glorious Burns connections. That no other writer has more statues to him around the world says it all. Weird still I know more Muscovites than Mancunians who can recite his glorious verse #scotlandhour 🏴
A2 is hard @ScotlandHour but ‘The rank is but the guinea’s stamp,/The Man’s the gowd’ written #Dumfries chimes #UpTheMiddleRoad although wealthy patients at Crichton had finer foods & anonymity.
