Dear me ! Surely these items are of such importance to Scotlands Cultural Heritage that they could have been left for the National Archive or Scottish Country Dance Associations. £7, 000 what an insult to that Great Man's lifes work and memory. Just because he has passed , does not mean he is forgotten. There is a massive and flourishing Scottish Country Dance following throughout the World. Where would they be without THE MASTERS music ? 🎶 I should know , my Uncle Robert , who is 94 years young , still attends and teaches s at Scottish Country Dancing clubs nr Eastbourne and Brighton. Sad sad times to hear this Brian Dawson Edinburgh Scotland 😎
