The post Burns night – Toast to the Lassies appeared first on Now you're talking.
]]>And who can blame him!
We all know that Rabbie Burns loved the lassies, but he also respected and valued us. He knew that the focus on the Rights of Man was wrong and said:
“The Rights of Woman merit some attention.”
Last time we were together to celebrate the great Rabbie Burns, I think we established very clearly the superiority of the lassies …
I can feel Burns rejoicing in the achievements of the lassies. We’ve just been celebrating 100 years of some women getting the vote. Without a vote, women were grouped with children and the insane, women were non-people, the property of their husbands. Imagine!
In 1918:
100 years later, all that’s changing. in 2018:
We’ve come a long way. But there’s still work to do, not least, closing the wretched gender pay gap.
Meanwhile, the laddies aren’t feeling so good:
We don’t really believe that, do we girls?
Has it all gone too far? Should we consider the unthinkable, join forces and work together.
Rabbie urges us to try and empathise a bit:
“O wad some Pow’r the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae mony a blunder free us,”
And when we empathise, we can see that we’re wired differently and there’s nothing wrong with that. We can complement each other. For instance:
We’re different and we can complement each other. We are stronger together.
Obviously, to make this work, there will have to be some clear red lines:
When a woman says “Yes Dear. Fine.” It’s far from fine.
“Go ahead” means “Don’t you dare!”
“Oh you think so” means “think again.”
Men on the other hand have their very own nuanced speak that we girls also need to respect:
We need to be much more open and supportive of each other. But don’t forget, boys, the huge hippocampus – we girls remember everything!
Let’s move forward together. Ladies and Gentlemen, the toast:
Lift your cup and drain it well,
For these are truths that I do tell.
Without all sexes, teams are lacking,
Girls and boys must get our backing,
Other genders we must heed
Without them, how can we proceed
To make a world that’s right and fair?
Let’s drink to all and their constant care.
Lyn Roseaman

]]>Click here to hear the speech or read on … 
1980 was a vintage year, wasn’t it?
It gave us …
The very first episode of Yes Minister.
The 2,000th episode of Coronation Street.
We even came third in Eurovision! Imagine!
And, bizarrely not making the news headlines was Friday 3 October 1980, our first day together at Ross Hall.
The ’80s were a different world, weren’t they? A world before smartphones and tablets. A world before bank accounts in credit. A world before responsibility.
I grant you, on that first day, Prof Beavis did his best to inject a note of responsibility. “Look to your left. Look to your right. And in three years’ time, one of you won’t be here!”
And maybe it worked … For a while. But it didn’t last!
We were risk takers, some might say chancers!
Why would you play it safe going to lectures when there was a big wide world out there to discover? Some have the enviable record of only attending one lecture in a whole term … Kath Morton. Makes my attendance at seven accountancy and finance lectures in a year look positively studious. But the prize surely goes to Bill Pringle, aka Pringy-Poohs! Following an impressive run of absenteeism, he came face to face with David Gee who uttered the immortal words … “And can I ask, who are you?”
As risk takers, we did our best to poison ourselves – fried egg sandwiches, mutton pies, pints of heavy – I still can’t pronounce that word! – snakebite, sherry, Litre Vin, magic mushrooms … from the field next to Ross Hall. Killer kebabs, curries, fish suppers and all those after-hours’ burger binges at the Ad Lib. Then, of course, there was the inevitable stop at Gregg’s, between Crookston and main campus for sausage rolls and apple turnovers. They’ve gone up in price a bit. Did anyone buy shares?
There’s that unforgettable experiment to turn a mini into a people carrier. How many people can you get into a mini and still drive it? How many? [shout out]. Hands up if you were there … 11 of you. We know who you are!
We were resourceful
Graeme’s early addiction to space invaders apparently paid for most Ross Hall party booze.
We ate inspirational signature dishes such as mango chutney toasties to save money for the really important essentials … like beer
Lawton used his hot-off-the-production-line Mini Metro to make his fortune by charging people the princely sum of 10p petrol money to ferry them to lectures.
We could spot future trends
Like cross-dressing. I don’t think they were alone, but Graeme with Chris Wilson dolled up as a girl, won them best-dressed couple at a Vicars and Tarts. Thanks go to Claire Dobie for wardrobe, hair and make-up.
We even learnt a thing or two, although perhaps not always what was intended!
Vienna was our song. If you haven’t seen the Elise and David M rendition, where were you?! So stunning, it cleared dance floors. Perhaps they can give us a re-run later?
I don’t dance, but even I was known to dance to Vienna –– after 10 pints, speaking fluent dolphin and barely able to stand. I was shocked to learn that Pringy-Poohs doesn’t think we’d have got very far in Strictly!
Vienna even summed up lectures for some. This means nothing to me eeeeconomics. You’ll be pleased to hear, I also need 10 pints to sing!
We’ve come a long way since those graduation-year ambitions to live life to the full, buy a hotel, burst out of a 36C bra or be home when ET phones.
We’ve met friends here. Sadly, we’ve also seen some pass away. Some of you even met your partners here.
While many, if not all of us, are no longer working in hotels, if we ever were, most of us seem to have been in some area of leisure or tourism. And the really lucky have retired.
So what does the future hold? We know what NOT to do:
And we know what we have to do to move forward:
If I’ve learnt anything over the years, it’s that it’s better to give than to receive, so as I’ve laid off the wine most of the evening to give this speech, please feel free to buy me a drink later!
Remember your family and friends. They are precious.
We don’t know what’s to come compared to what has been, but, in the words of Abraham Lincoln “it’s not the years in your life that count; it’s the life in your years”. We’ve got away with it so far. Here’s to the next 38 years!
Raise your glasses, please …. To Strathclyde, the Sottish Hotel School and, of course, Graeme for organising this fabulous evening.
