Matt Seattle	Border Ballad events in the Borders 2010 (6)	Border Ballads in the Borders 2010	11 Jan 10
In December just gone I went to a fascinating talk on Kinmont Willie in Hawick Town Hall, which was packed for the occasion. There are a couple of talks coming up in Langholm so I thought I'd post details here, and if there are any related events others can add to the thread. I'm using "the Borders" here to include Scottish Borders, Dumfries and Galloway, Northumberland, Cumbria.
