I'm off to address the haggis at a burns night tonight. I've done it on two previous occassions
and it's gone well hence this being my third time. I'm dead nervous though, but none-the-less looking forward to it.

Does anyone else attend/celebrate Burns night?

    Ran the bar for the Market Drayton Burns night (my mum is the chairman - so no choice)!

    Had a giggle & my old chap played the pipes

    How did yours go?

    Haggis , I will have to try that stuff one day. Any recommendations ? I thought I might start with Sainsbury's Taste The Difference.
