Do you have the trad dinner on the Bards day in your hoose? Maybe a few wee nippy sweeties to wash it doon:jager

The local pub celebrated Burns night on Friday, they have a Whisky tasting evening, I didnt partake, being a chap from the saarf I'm not keen on whisky, Haggis, Neeps n tatties and Cullen Skink went down well though :D

(sorry if spelling aint rite!!)
 
I had a wee snifter of haggis for my lunch today in the traditional style, on toast.

Tomorrow we'll have a proper nosh up for dinner and I'll see if the piper can make it this year.

I had a wee dram last night. Just to celebrate Burns of course....
 
Skye's Primary 7 class organised the School's first ever proper Burns Supper on Friday. Quite a few parents made it along and I made the effort to dress up for the occasion and wore my Kilt, which was appreciated by the staff, though not so sure about Skye :rolleyes:

Was very well done and I enjoyed seconds and thirds of Neeps, Tatties and Haggis, washed down with Iron Bru. Very tasty Haggis :thumb2

Will have more tomorrow :thumb
 
Lots of Burns Suppers going on in all the village halls over these two weekends. Pity I have to work.:(

But we'll be having ours in the house tonight.:thumb2
 
I hope so! Sitting on the Tay just now and will have to bully the chef into making sure we have a haggis or twa but not sure about the drams!! Mind you I have sampled my fair share over the weekend in Dundee's nightspots!!!! :beer:

JIM O SHACHTER

Intae the wids amongst the trees
Jim bared his erse, his cheeks tae ease
Nae sooner had his breeks gan doon
Than shity flees were swarmin roon

Intae the wind he bared his baws
And frae his erse a big keech faws
The reek it curled amongst the trees
Twis enough tae mak the birdies sneeze
An a the beasts in burn and ditch
Got a whiff o something awfy rich

Big Jim he wis in awfy pain
It came out his erse like a nine pun wean
There wis a tear faw fae his ee
Fur a bigger shite you'd never see

Big Jims erse wis raw and sair
Says Big Jim I'll shite nae mair
Yonder it lay among the grit
A steemin, stinkin muckle shit

There it lay sae soft sae fresh
Nae hair ,nae teeth, nae brains, nae flesh
Tae wipe his erse Jim yaised a docken
While a aroon the birds were boacken

Jim happed it ower wi stanes and stoor
Then sauntered off across the moor
A wee bit quicker wi bein sae light
Efter riddin himself o that muckle shite

Noo a've telt ye this tale for a wee bit laughter
A tale ye can tell for ever after
A tell ye noo, a swear its true
The tale o Jim o Shachter
