Whit if Alexander 111 haed Twitter?

Whit if the Haggis addrest itsel?
Whit if Jacques Brel haed jyned the Corries?
Poet and historian Hugh McMillan ponders history as it might have been in a reading/ramble/discussion based on Whit If: Scottish History as it micht hae been, poems in Scots with illustrations by Bob Dewar. The unlikely, the impossible and the downright absurd come to life.
A confused knowledge of Scottish history is essential before coming in. And on leaving.
