u3a deputy chair, Rod Ferrier said: “George McCallum will entertain us with stories of Robert Tannahill’s life, as well as sing some songs and share his better-known poems. Tannahill was an accomplished Scottish poet and songwriter, back then being nearly as famous as Robert Burns. Members can join in with this festive interactive presentation.”
