Theses places include Robert Burns Grave, Robert Burns House, The Globe Inn and Ellisland Farm. I recite the poem 'My Love is like a Red Red Rose' in the very room that it was written in. I have the absolute pleasure of sitting in 'The Poets Chair' (THE chair Robert sat on and recited poetry in the Globe Inn) and I finish this episode with a visit to Ellisland Farm, where Robert wrote Tam O Shanter, The Wounded Hare, To Mary in Heaven and Auld Lang Syne.If you want to see / hear about the places around Dumfries that influenced Robert Burns, then this is the episode for you!Burns Banter - A fresh look at Robert Burns
