Burns Night

Today we celebrate Burns Night, in honour of Robert Burns. Not properly, in our house, (un)fortunately: There was no haggis to be got for love nor money (we may not have tried very hard); but Tor cracked open the whisky (For relaxing times, make it Suntory time!) and I cracked open the books (The Complete Annotated Works of Burns printed by Blackie and sons in 1877). And a good time was had by all.

Whenever I feel uncultured I read blog posts like this one and consider that you are friends of mine. The feeling of unculturedness subsides.

I brought back some canned haggis from Edinburgh at my last visit, so I'll be better prepared next year. I even have a touristy kilt somewhere, so if we can find some bagpipe music on iTunes we're all set.
