    Well I had haggis, tatties and turnip last night for tea. Yummy scrummy. Hope you all enjoyed your Haggis those who are brave enough to eat it.

    I was invited to a Burns Nights once and thoroughly enjoyed, yes, I was a little apprehensive about the haggis but found it to be delicious.

    I had not haggis last night, but I did have a haggis pizza at lunchtime - does that count?

    It is quite popular at the uni I work in. They serve it once a week in one of the food outlets. For Burns night they added sweet chilli sauce - sounds awful, but actually worked, and made it the same price as the margarita.

    I had a family Burn's night the other year with family from South Africa and England - what a laugh! I did the reply from the lassies - in verse. Hearing Tam O'Shanter read in such a variety of accents was hilarious.

    Hubby is an Ayrshire lad, very keen on Burn's nights, but yesterday we were at a Richard Thomson concert at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow so didn't do Burns.
