Download or read book Dear Billy written by Gary McNair and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would I do if I met him? I'd prob'ly kiss his feet. I'd prob'ly kiss his big banana feet. If you don't know who Billy Connolly is, ask the people of Scotland. And if you want to know about the people of Scotland, ask them about Billy Connolly. Over the course of four years, Gary and a team of story gatherers went all over the country with their dictaphones speaking to people about the Big Yin. Many of them were experts, many his biggest fans, many delighted to recount the time they met, if only for a brief moment, for many he is the greatest of all time. But no matter what they thought, no one was short of things to say about him. Gary then took this huge collection of moving and hilarious tales and turned them into Dear Billy, a joyous piece of theatre celebrating the Big Yin and what he means to us. The production was written and performed by Gary McNair and directed by Joe Douglas. National Theatre of Scotland originally toured the production around Scotland in 2023. This edition was published to coincide with the second National Theatre of Scotland tour and subsequent run at Edinburgh Fringe Festival from May-August 2024.
Book Synopsis Jaggy Nettles by : Fay (Hawson) Copland
Download or read book Jaggy Nettles written by Fay (Hawson) Copland and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2020-01-17 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scots refer to thistles and other stinging plants as “jaggy nettles:” things we can’t help but step on or brush up against sometimes, even when we’re watching where we’re going. Fay (Hawson) Copland has had her fair share of stings over the years, but the love of her family has acted as a soothing balm that always got her through. A sequel to Skint Knees – Reflections on a Scottish Childhood, which focused (as its name implies) on the author’s early years in Scotland, Jaggy Nettles – An Immigrant’s Memoir tells the rest of her story, beginning with young Fay and her family preparing to immigrate to Canada. From there, it follows her life’s journey, growing up as a new Canadian, getting an education, building a satisfying career, and eventually starting a Canadian family of her own – one that has grown to include two children, two in-law children and four grandchildren.
