005: To The Memory Of Tam The Gun Comments

Hello Colin a fitting tribute, very well penned Regards Alf

Brought back many memories Colin I spent my childhood holidays in Auld Reekie My uncle was station master at the Waverley Station

I like the rhymes in the first stanza and the humurous flavor. I am lacking on the history for this one.

Went to see this as a kid in the mid 1960s, just when the Bridge was finished. Was it Tam that kindled her up then? A very fine reminder of one of Auld Reekie's fixtures Colin. By the way, you made Aberdour sound like heaven! ! This is history as poetry. Ta jim
