Burns Scotland Lecture 25th Jan. 2014
The Burns Scotland Lecture is part of the annual conference of the Centre for Robert Burns Studies, a Department of Glasgow University.
I had been asked to come along and speak about the newly discovered Shaw Burns painting. I was honoured to find my talk was the keynote Burns Scotland Lecture 2014. Honoured and exceptionally nervous!!

Here, I have just been presented with a Clootie Dumpling by the late Richard Fowler at The Kilmarnock Howff Burns Club on the occasion of their Clootie Dumpling Lecture. 18th April 2018
Dick was an inspiration to many Burns scholars, certainly to myself. He was always genuinely interested, inquisitive, and encouraging.
He will be greatly missed.
