Subject: RE: Any Burns Night doings in UK?
Don't be so dismissive GUEST Jack - Tell us all what information contained is in dispute? The Wiki entry has references that lead to the Greenock Burns Club which was the first and is the oldest and is referred to as "The Mother Club" - Are you saying that their records are incorrect, or false.

You mention that the Dalkeith Club is where "the modern form of the Burns Supper was invented" means absolutely nothing. But that is a bit different to what you claimed in your post of 10 Jan 18 - 01:42 PM - "The very first Burns Night was held in Dalkeith in 1812." - That claim GUEST Jack Campin is a myth that has been well and truly disproven.
