Happy Robbie Burns day

[de minimus]

Enjoy your Haggis, tatties and nips....and of course the whisky to wash it all down!

Whiskey!! Bite your toung laddie. Only 30yr Single Malt will do.



Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great Chieftan o' the Puddin-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy of a grace
As lang's my arm.

The groaning trencher there ye fill,
Your hurdies like a distant hill,
Your pin wad help to mend a mill
In time o' need,
While thro' your pores the dews distil
Like amber bead.

His knife see Rustic-labour dight,
An' cut you up wi' ready slight,
Trenching your gushing entrails bright
Like onie ditch;
And then, O what a glorious sight,
Warm-reekin, rich!

Ye Pow's wha mak mankind your care,
And dish them out their bill o' fare,
Auld Scotland wants nae shinking ware
That jaups in luggies;
But, if you wish her gratefu' pray'r,
Gie her a Haggis!

Ah, my fellow Scot, you will note that I said "Whisky" and not "Whiskey".

Aye, you surely did.

For the past two years I have been posting Robbie Burn's birthday here. This year my memory has left me with a void.

I, too, share his birthday. Too bad I was out of town on business and didn't get to wear my kilt!

Aye.

Best wishes of the day.

Time to read a little out of one of Robert Service's books.
