Happy Burns Night, Scotties.:wink:

Errr... what is Burns night?:blush:

poetry and haggis basically lol ...

:laugh:

That's about it, Steph. :thumbs:

For Lance ........... At a traditional Burns Supper, the meal usually starts off with cock-a-leekie soup (chicken & leek! :laugh:), followed by haggis, neeps and tatties.

The haggis is ceremonially piped in, and someone recites Rabbie Burns' poem 'Address To A Haggis', after which they're toasted with a glass of Scotch whisky.

Often the hn&t is followed by steak pie and all the trimmings, and sometimes even trifle! :laugh:

And there's always a rendition of 'Tam O'Shanter' ...... brilliant! :spin2:

Google for the poems if you've never heard of them before ......... go on, you know you want to! :tongue:

Is it like a National feast day or something like that? Like we have Paddy's Day?

Happy burns day to every1 from yesterday (i'm a bit late)

I'm shocked at the number of people who don't know what Burns Night is! *gasp*
