Burns Day
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the puddin'-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak yer place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy o' a grace
As lang's my airm.
The traditional address to a haggis, as written by Robert Burns.
And today is Burns Day!
I'm not a fan of Burns' work based on the simple premise that I simply don't understand most of it.
I do admire those who dedicate their time to the celebration of his works and life. It clearly brings a lot of pleasure.
So tonight we'll be having haggis for tea. Marks and Spencer fayre too no less!
Burns trivia: did you know that Burns was the first person ever to feature on a commemorative bottle of coca-cola? That was in 2009.
