Burns night

[CJ]

All the banter and P taking aside.................I have to admit that I don't know a more Patriotic nation than the Scots. Much more so than the English.

A fine interpritation of Burns's work, sung by a man from Edinbragh, wont hold it against him tho. :smilewinkgrin:

Perhaps my favourite Scotsman, how the mans life hasnt been in film I will never no although he has featured in plenty of songs.
Thomas Muir of Huntershill

I have not celebrated burns night as I am about as far away from Scotland as an English man can be. I am ashamed to say that I have never tried haggis, have always wanted to but never really got round to it. I must make the effort. I did however go on a whiskey tasting master class in honor of burns night and my goodness was the Scottish guy taking the class patriotic!

I think it's beauty is taken for granted by those of us who live there. We forget about the parks, history, woodland etc that we have in the city.

Did you know the small islands in the firth or forth are actually man made and were made to mimic the silhouette of WW2 ships as a deterrent to Nazi invaders

[Muse2k8]

Go to Victoria Street off the grassmarket and head to a place called Oink.

A roll filled with stuffing or haggis, apple or cranberry sauce and then piled with the juciest, tender pulled pork and gravy with crackling

I'm hungry now...
