Spring 2019 Edition W & L editorial By Noel & Karina Hey everyone! Noel and Karina from Work & Learning here. 2018 was a great year for our Unit, with the Planning Day and Celebration being highlights. One of our proudest moments was when the Discuss For Action group successfully invited not one, but two politicians to Flourish House- including our Mental Health Minister Clare Haughey. This visit helped raise the profile of Flourish House and highlighted to the Minister what Flourish House means to the membership. The Work & Learning Planning Day was a resounding success, which will continue to have an impact on how we deliver the work of the unit for the rest of 2019. We’re already working on the feedback, making changes to TEP management, lifelong learning opportunities e.g. language classes & photography, and seeking opportunities to work with partners in the community to deliver a wide range of learning, volunteering & work opportunities. It was our first Work & Learning Celebration, and we felt incredibly moved by the personal stories of the members’ journeys which were shared. Since the Celebration, many members have already achieved a great deal and we anticipate this year’s celebration being just as successful and possibly even bigger! We handed out 118 certificates at last year’s celebration, showing the growing participation in the Unit and the ambition of the members. This year you might notice a difference with the Work & Learning Dinners. These will be focused on particular topics which we hope you’ll find of great interest. We want to encourage lively debate and meaningful conversation around diverse topics, that everyone can participate in. Have a look at the current schedule for 2019: Wednesday 27th February: ‘Personal Responsibility part 1: Within Flourish, daily and work life and in relation to H&S’ Wednesday 27th March ‘Personal Responsibility part 2: Active citizenship’ Wednesday 24th April ‘Personal Responsibility part 3: Barriers & Stigma, a See Me Presentation with Discuss for Action Group” Wednesday 29th May ‘TEPs: Sharing Journeys. A conversation with those who have completed a TEP’ Wednesday 31st July ‘Lifelong Learning part 1: Why is lifelong learning different from vocational learning?’ Wednesday 28th August ‘Lifelong Learning part 2: Sharing experiences of learning’ Wednesday 25th September ‘Lifelong Learning part 3: Peer learning in Flourish House’ Wednesday 30th October ‘Advocacy and exercising your rights: Guest Speaker TBA’ Wednesday 27th November ‘Reflections on 2019: What works and what next?’ Finally, a big thanks to all the Flourish House members who have participated in the work of the Unit and supported Noel and Karina to help shape Work & Learning into an accessible and inviting space.

Firstly, we have a new TEP with Bike for Good at their depot on Haugh Road (on the other side of Kelvingrove Park). The job is for a Cleaning Technician and it provides 3 hours of work each week. For those who have been out on the bike rides with Bike for Good, or at their workshop, you’ll know how happy we are to be working with such a fantastic group of people! Congratulations to Peter Cox on his new job! Also, congratulations to Esther Kelly and Tosh who began the Restart Cleaning Technician TEP in January! And lastly, Following the end of the GAMH South TEP, Daniel C has moved to Stepping Stones. 7 Stuart's loch swim Hi my name is Stuart Campbell and I am a member of flourish house, recently I started a fundraiser on Facebook called ‘getting back into the water’ and also on 'just giving' with a target of £1000, I have been building up to my swim for about a month now having ordered a wetsuit and safety buoy. I have also joined a group called wild west swimmers who organise events swimming wild in Scotland and I have been to my local pool to train. On the 2nd of Dec 2018 I travelled to Loch Lubnaig and had my first Loch swim and winter swim to raise money for flourish house, I was with 3 others, 1 man in a wetsuit and 2 women who were in skins (without wetsuit) the temperature was 6 degrees and I stayed in the water for 15 mins staying in the shallows, I really enjoyed it, the scenery was stunning, the water was fresh and I was ready to brave the elements. After the swim I felt really good and I wasn’t as cold as I thought I’d be, all in all it was a very exhilarating swim and I will be doing it again, I have 102 more large lochs to swim and I will be swimming rivers and beaches as well, can’t wait for 2019, wish me luck! please donate to stuart's just giving fundraiser account 8 Cock-a-leekie soup (spring chicken soup) Ingredients : 1 tbsp vegetable oil 1 medium chicken jointed into pieces, 180g smoked bacon lardon 2 carrots, chopped celery sticks, chopped 1-2 leeks , washed and cut into thick rounds (tops reserved) 2 bay leaves 1/2 bunch thyme sprigs, bread, to serve Heat the oil in a large heavy-based saucepan until hot. Fry the chicken pieces in batches until golden brown, then remove and set aside. Add the bacon, carrots, celery, leek tops and fry for 5 mins until it all starts to brown. Pour off any excess fat. Splash in the wine and boil rapidly, scraping the bottom of the pan. Return the chicken pieces with the herbs and add enough cold water to cover. Slowly bring to the boil, then simmer for 40 mins until the chicken is tender. Remove the chicken to a plate, cover with foil and leave to cool slightly. Strain the soup into a clean saucepan and discard all the other ingredients. Leave to stand for a few mins and skim off any fat that rises to the top.

  • 1. August Angellier in Robert Burns, La Vie, Les Oeuvres, 2 Vols (Paris
    Notes CHAPTER 1 THE EARLY PERIOD: BURNS' INTUITIVE USE OF SCOTTISH TRADITION 1. August Angellier in Robert Burns, La Vie, Les Oeuvres, 2 vols (Paris, 1983) pointed to this when he said: 'But underneath this scholarly poetry there existed a popular poetry which was very abundant, very vigorous, very racy and very original'. See especially p. 14 of Jane Burgoyne's selected translation from Angellier in the Burns Chronicle and Club Directory, 1969. Other portions of the translation appeared in 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973. 2. J. De Lancey Ferguson (ed.) The Letters of Robert Burns, 2 vols (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1931), 1: 106, no. 125. Burns adopted a superior tone here in keeping with the accepted pose of the eighteenth-century man of letters. All references to Burns' letters are to Ferguson's edition. Only letter numbers will be given when the citation appears in the text proper. 3. Most critics and students of Burns take some stance towards his relationship with previous work. Hans Hecht, Robert Burns: The Man and His Work, 2nd rev. ed. (London: William Hodge & Company, 1950), p. 29, suggests that Burns was the culmination of a tradition, but he speaks of a literary rather than a cultural inheritance. 4. See T. S. Eliot, The Sacred Wood (London: Methuen, 1950), pp. 47-59. 5. Angellier earlier suggested this division and I agree with him that Burns' work prior to Edinburgh was dominated by depiction of the world around him. After Edinburgh, Angellier indicates that Burns relied less on the specific incidents and more on general sentiments.

  • Burns Supper Even Before His Death, Poet Robert Burns' Cottage At
    Burns Supper Even before his death, poet Robert Burns’ cottage at Alloway, Ayrshire, had been sold to the incorporation, or guild, of shoemakers of Ayr, one of whose members turned it into an alehouse. It was here, on 29 January 1801 (they got his birthday wrong) that soldiers of the Argyll Fencibles (militia) met to hear their band play – and to use the services of his cottage in its new role. The first recorded Burns Supper took place at Alloway in the same year, but on the anniversary of his death (21st July). It involved a speech and multiple toasts; to eat there was haggis (which was addressed) and, a mercifully lost tradition, sheep’s head; given the social status of those present, refreshment was probably wine and ale rather than whisky. Present were nine friends and patrons of Burns. Among them was a lady, though thereafter the Suppers were mostly (sometimes militantly) all-male affairs until far into the twentieth century: a curious slant on Burns’ own life as well as on the first dinner. The ‘toast to the lasses’ was traditionally thanks for the cooking and an appreciation of the women in Burns’ life, only later degenerating into a sexist (often misogynistic) rant. Celebrations were held twice yearly until 1809 when participants settled on January (25th), because this fell in a slack period of the agricultural year. Commercialisation of his birthplace did little to honour the memory of his life and work, and in 1822 the poet John Keats complained bitterly of how both the ambience and the landlord of the Alloway inn degraded Burns’ greatness.

  • RBWF Newsletter July 2015
    The Robert Burns World Federation Newsletter Issue 16 July 2015 This edition of the Newsletter continues to demonstrate the wonderful work being done by the Federation in promoting the life and works of Robert Burns with the younger generation. It is particularly gratifying to see the enthusiasm of pupils involved in the Primary Schools’ Festival and in a repeat performance of the Burns musical ‘Rabbie’ at the Edinburgh Fringe by St George’s Girls School, Edinburgh. Some very welcome thoughts on promoting Burns in the classroom are presented by a secondary school teacher and hopefully it will evoke a response. The rededication ceremony for the laying of the foundation stone for the Burns Mausoleum in Dumfries, some 200 years after the original event, is deservedly given full coverage.

    triskeleA newsletter of UWM’s Center for Celtic Studies Volume 8 Issue 1 Eanair 2010 The Center’s annual celebration of Samhain, the Celtic New Year, took place on Saturday, the 31st of October. Although it wasn’t quite “A blethering, blustering drunken blellum”, it was a convivial gathering of celtic folks from the UWM and the celtic community. Ian Day, from the St Andrew’s The Caledonian Dancers society, enlivened the proceedings with his delightful recitation of Burns’ Tam o’ Shanter. The Caledonian Dancers, led by Reuel Zielke, danced their lovely legs off and there were tunes from Randy Gosa and Bret Lipschutz. Celtic Studies Faculty shared their favorite ghost stories and there were Halloween treats for all. Píobaire na Rinceoirí A showing of “Boy Eats Girl”, a new movie about zombies in the Dublin suburbs, brought a modern twist to the otherwise traditional festivities.The evening concluded the award ceremony to honor those who dressed up for the evening. Costumes included devils and highlanders as well as a full-size penguin suit. In this Edition: In the Community ..........

  • Burns' Night Burns' Night Celebrates the Life and Work of Robert Burns and Scottish Culture in General
    Burns' Night Burns' Night celebrates the life and work of Robert Burns and Scottish culture in general. It is on or around January 25 each year. Burns Night is annually celebrated in Scotland on or around January 25. It commemorates the life of the bard (poet) Robert Burns, who was born on January 25, 1759. The day also celebrates Burns' contribution to Scottish culture. Burns' best known work is "Auld Lang Syne". Haggis, neeps and tatties traditionally eaten What do people do? Many people and organizations hold a Burns' supper on or around Burns' Night. These may be informal or formal, only for men, only for women, or for both genders. Formal events include toasts (Trinkspruch) and readings of pieces written by Robert Burns. Ceremonies during a Burns' Night supper vary according to the group organizing the event and the location. Before the meal a special grace (Tischgebet) is said: Some hae meat and canna eat, Some have food and cannot eat And some wad eat that want it, And there are some who need food. But we hae meat and we can eat, But we have meat and we can eat Sae let the Lord be thankit. And so let us thank the Lord. The evening centers on the entrance of the haggis (a type of sausage prepared in a sheep's stomach) on a large platter to the sound of a piper playing bagpipes. When the haggis is on the table, the host reads the "Address to a Haggis". This is an ode that Robert Burns wrote to the Scottish dish.

  • The Saltire 2.14
    No 1 Message from the Chieftain February 2014 Another great Burns Supper Our recent Burns Supper provided a clear reason why it is the most popular event on the Society’s calendar of events. There was something for everyone. The Bard of Ayr was well and truly remembered through the toasts in the formal part of the evening . Ken Suttie addressed the haggis, I delivered the Immortal Memory, Michael Haines gave the toast Tae the Lassies and Laura Grinham responded on behalf of the lassies. "Alba Gu Brath" Then we had three wonderful singers from the floor . young COMMITTEE 2013-2014 Jane Jackson, Jim McGuire and Eleanor Love . and Sandy Milligan gave an excellent rendition of the famous Robert Burns Chieftain poem, Holy Willie’s Prayer . Brian McMurdo Sandy even made-up and dressed-up for the part! Great fun. Immediate Past Chieftain As well as providing the dance music for the ceilidh part of the Ken Suttie evening, the Heel n Toe Band also gave us a song or two (the band said it was one of the best events they had played at). Vice Chieftain Doris LaValette I should mention here that the Burns Supper saw our new Honorary Piper, Alex Foster, of the Perth Metro Pipe Band, Hon Secretary play for us for the first time during pre-dinner drinks and when leading the Haggis party. Darian Ferguson And the whole event was held together with great aplomb by Hon Treasurer our MC duo, Diana Paxman and Reggie McNeill. Diana Paxman Of course, there wouldn’t have been anything for them to hold Members together without the great work put in by the event manager, Cameron Dickson Vice-Chieftain Doris LaValette.
