Is it not very bad luck to leave the decorations up after 12th night?
As we are now little more than a fortnight off the infamous night of celebration of that great Scottish Rabbi, who burns the haggis may I respectfully suggest that it is time for the snowflakes to dry up?
BTW Morrisons are flogging off Hall's Haggii at £1.50 a pop & they will still be in date on Burns night if you want a cheap party.

If you must have a mass produced haggis, surely McSween's is the yin whose hurdies to stab for entrails gushing bright?

There is seldom much choice this far South, it's good to see any available at all.

More fun too, so I am told.
