Autorenporträt

I was born in Perth Scotland and attended school in Glasgow. At the age of twenty three I emigrated to Canada, where I have spent my adult life raising a family and working. But absence does make the heart grow fonder. Throughout the years I have organized Burns Suppers for the Rotary Club, attended Burns Suppers at the Seaforth Highlanders of Canada and participated in Burns Suppers at friends homes. Perhaps Burns is in my genes as my grandfather was the president of the Bridgeton Burns Club 1934/35. During many trips to Scotland I have visited the Burns Cottage and the spectacular New Bruns Birthplace Museum at Alloway.
