In this episode I go on a whistle stop tour of Robert Burns sites in Ayrshire. These include: the house Robert was born in, The Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, the auld Alloway kirk, the Brig O' Doon, the Tarbolton bachelors club, Poosie Nansies Pub and Mossgiel Farm.
Poosie Nansies pub, and the characters that drank there, was the inspiration behind the epic Burns cantata 'The Jolly Beggars'. I was inspired by the place and recited 'Willie Wastles Wife'. The Auld Alloway kirk is where, in the poem Tam O' Shanter, Tam saw the witches and the devil dancing. Mossgiel farm is where Robert wrote a huge amount of his poems, this is where he wrote 'to a mouse'. I recite the poem in front of the field where Robert went through the mouses nest with his plough.
If you want to see the places in ayrshire where Robert lived and worked then this is the episode for you!
