North Edinburgh’s bubbling over with Burns
There will be at least two local opportunities to celebrate the birth of the Bard next Friday (25th January).
The Prentice Centre in Granton Mains is the venue for an afternoon debate and discussion on Scotland’s future (something Burns himself cared passionately about) while in the evening at North Edinburgh Arts the Transition Group’s latest World Cafe event will have a definite tartan flavour with a menu packed with Scottish favourites.
