A’ entered a Slam competition which a’ normally dae very badly in but a gig is a gig even if it is only a three minute yin. David McDonald said hi before a’ went on and he seemed tae ken me better than a’ kent him but a’ ‘hink we bumped into each othir in ma spoken word by gone days afore a’ move tae Turkey.
Even though a’ looked a’ bit oot ae place in the posh surroundin’s ae The Scottish Storytelling Centre the crood warmed tae me fairly quickly an’ a’ got laughs in aw the richt places.
A’ managed tae come second which is a first in mare than yin way.
Here a’ am wi’ the winner whae’s poem lasted at least twice the allocated 3 minutes but am a’ bitter? Dinnae answer that.
Here a’ am wi’ the compere and organiser and a’ ‘hink the granny worked at the centre but a’ could be wrang.
Here are the featured acts sets.
