Karen
Dunbar reads ‘Tam o’Shanter’
Now, wha this
tale o' truth shall read,
Ilk man and
mother's son, take heed:
Whene'er to
Drink you are inclin'd,
Or Cutty-sarks
rin in your mind,
Think ye may
buy the joys o'er dear;
Remember Tam
o' Shanter's mare – Robert Burns
Various
Tam o’Shanters
A
Tam
o'Shanter
is a Scottish bonnet
worn by men which was named after a character invented by Robert
Burns. The bonnet is made of wool with a toorie
(pompom) in the
centre, and the crown is about twice the diameter of the head. It
might be available in plain colours or in different tartans.
Tam
o'shanters are worn
by the Scottish infantry regiments of the British Army instead of
berets. They are plain khaki in colour and are stiffer than
civilian tam o'shanters,
with a narrower, flat crown often worn sloping down from back to
front.
