Burns night

[Mark]

Burns night on Thursday. Who is having Haggis, neeps & tatties?

I might go haggis hunting myself, it's quite a drive to the highlands but it's better to catch them yourself so you can get a fresh one :D

[pino]

Mark, can I join you ? :p :

[Mark]

I dunno, you'll have to be quiet, they run away if you make any noise :(

[pino]

They run away from your dish ? :confused: :p :

[A.F.F.]

Open the cans Mark. Haggis hide in the cans.

[janneppi]

Haggis McHaggis might have some issues about this day of hunting him. :)

[Iain]

Pino, do you sell haggis pizza? :D

I haven't been, but I think it's this place called Bene's in Edinburgh. Bottom left on this page:

I might have to try it next time I'm in Edinburgh!

I'll then ask Jamie to take me there when I'll visit him ;)

I heard J4mie think's it's a roobish idea for a pizza. Oh wait that's RB :p Ignore me if you weren't already doing so :p

[J4MIE]

I'm more than willing to give you a tour of Scotland's natural haggis habitat ;)

Not sure about letting you loose on the whisky trail though! :p :

[FrankenSchwinn]

and i thought you were talking about Richard burns.....

[Drew]

I have to admit, I've never heard of neeps and tatties before, what are they?

Where have you been all your life Drew???

Mashed turnip and potato.

Everyone knows that Haggis run round the mountains of Scotland because they have 1 leg shorter than the other

So they can't move off a circular path? :laugh:

I always thought the haggis was manufactured out of old tram tickets and bubble-wrap ;)

[tannat]

A popular misconception. Although they do taste somewhat similar, you'll find the tram ticket and bubble wrap atificial Haggis actually tastes nicer ;)

[FrankenSchwinn]

though irish, spicy mchaggis:

I've been pretty much living in the furthest place AWAY from Scotland in Britain :p :

Think I'll give it a miss, though ;)

Ah, I had wondered... thanks. I've never had any form of haggis, although I may have seen one run across the street in front of me when I was 13. I didn't know they could survive outside of their natural, -75 degree habitat ;) :devil:
