Burns' Night

That sounds delicious Galen. What a pity I am feeling too rotten with a cold to join you. You would not weigh as much on Monday if I had been able to help eat some of the food.

an' this address tae the haggis for starters

Of course!
It will be solemnly read over the haggis after it has been piped in on my recorder and stabbed with my Swiss army penknife!

I don't think I can manage the 'full highland honours' with the toast to '*the immortal memory*', as my hips are too stiff to stand on the dining room chair with my other foot on the table, and the right some reel will be a one some stagger, but the spirit (whisky) will be there!

Scots whahae!

rightsome eightsome!

Ooh Galen a Burns night party!
I have a plaid picnic rug, I'll bring that (don't tell the OG but I'll Smuggle out his Laphroig sp?)
Now, who said they could tinkle the ivories.......

Ok! Sounds like 'Flash virtual party' I'll start a new thread!

We have a burns night quiz tonight run by social committee plus food and other entertainment .

I'm am totally amazed by the number of people, south of the border, who will be celebrating Burns today. It made me wonder why there is no such thing as a Shakespeare Supper and what food, drink and entertainment there would be at such an event? I could do a dramatic 'The quality of mercy is not strained...........'

One for you to ponder Galen?

Granny23 For me it's because I like vegetarian haggis and I cannot buy it locally other than at this time of year. I bought three and put them in the freezer.
