Happy Birthday, Rabbie







Had our annual Nicht Wi' Rabbie Burns at church tonight. There was haggis, tatties 'n neeps, shortbread, lots of toasts, pipers and dancers and songs and poems. I got to read the two above. The house was full and jumpin'. Such fun!

If you've a mind to here's a short bio on the man Robert Burns: An Appreciation on the Occasion of His 250th Birthday.

His poems and songs can be found here.

Haggis was once described to me... that's all I need to know, thank you. Shortbred, though, don't put a box in front of me if you ever do want to see it agin'.
