Default Mmmmmm

Mmmmmm sounds tastey!!! Doesn't it?

If you drink enough Whiskey you can eat anything!

Even a McDonald's (Scottish) burger and fries

I wish you a happy Hogmanay too DuH2


I'll be in Edinburgh tonight to see in the bells - looking forward to the snog fest too!!!!

I'll see how many classey American women I can snog - they are suckers for a man in a Kilt

For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp,
And surely I'll be mine,
And we'll tak a cup o kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine,
But we've wander'd monie a weary fit,
Sin auld lang syne."
Kudos to people of Scotland in general (real Warriors - with capital 'S') and to Robert Burns in particular ! I was reading some poems of R. Burns (in translation of S.Marshak) during studying in a local highschool. AFAIK, January, 25 is a national holyday of Scotland, a birthday of a great Poet, right?

Default Burns night

oui mon ami Jan 25 est Burn's la nuit - pas une Fête nationale


But we drink Whiskey and eat Haggis in the evening and say Burn's poems to each other as we gather together in big parties - and A man playing the bagpipes "pipes" in the haggis to the dinner table!!

It is a great time, especially as its arrives in the long dark nights of January and after the Christmas and New Year is over before the Spring arrives - a good excuse for a party

OK with the 'Whiskey' ( Scotch ((whiskey)) as us 'Mericans' would say) and Burns is fine, but I have to draw the line at the Haggis and wearing the skirt!

happy Hogmanay
