Happy Hogmanay to all way up north.
Enjoy your haggis neeps and tatties.
We have ours the low fat way.
Sliced and fried and served with chips.

It's Burns night, Paul, for those that celebrate it
It's one of the most carb-heavy menus I've come across!
Are you going to one?

Sorry, of course its Burns Night.
We used to go to one at our local Bangla Deshi restaurant ! But she's closed down, so we are going to Whitby for fish and chips with her next week. Keep up, this gets complicated.
She's doing traditional haggis at home tonight. Val and I, as I said, fry ours with chips, tomorrow. Ashma is as mad as a box of frogs. She asks me for the dates of Muslim festivals. Nicest woman you could meet.
One night in her restaurant, she ran out of red wine. She gave me a fiver, asked me to go to the co-op and buy the cheapest bottle of wine. On my return, she sold me a glass, for £6.00

Don't tell me you forgot Jim...
My evening has been spent solid on b****y (a well-known hotel-booking site) sorting German and Italian accommodation for June..........actually, pass the whisky

Of course I didn’t forget Simon, I was laughing at Pauls take on our Scottish history.

Then there was the Scotsman who went to the fancy dress Burns night.
He put his kilt on upside down and went as a shuttlecock.
