WHAT a tonic it was to see my good friend and comrade Ron Brown in the Evening News (Big Mac gets tasty role in shipyards strike play, November 14) with his socialist greyhound. He looked to be in fine form.
Ron is undoubtedly one of this city's great characters and it was good to see him in such rude health again. And rude is the right word as he somehow manages to promote the socialist cause and workers' rights, even when this time it's his retired greyhound Big Mac who is centre stage.
I hope that dog is an Equity member, Ron? And I hope you and Big Mac make it back safely from Morningside in time for next week's SSP Free School Meals For All public meeting in Bonnington Primary School down in the people's republic of Leith.
