    Nonsense. Snares are a long term option totally unsuited to haggis season which we all know only lasts one day. If you were to eat one outside the official season it'd taste like a sheep innards, apparently.

      A Scots (Picts) couple out on the town:

      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        If u'd lived in Scotland as I have u'd know the actual proper haggis is pretty disgusting, being a sheep's stomach with intestines stuffed in it with other offal.

        The off the shelf haggis is not the same, in Scotland or not...

          Burns night jobbed.

          Read the address, again courtesy of youtube.

          Stuck the blade in the haggis at the appropriate point.

          Then during dinner explained what a Haggis is, the 4/6 legged variety, shorter legs on one side, clockwise and counter clockwise Haggis etc etc.

          Children looked horrified they'd eaten something so cute and defenceless.

          Then, when the pickings were rich, I told them what Haggis ACTUALLY is.

          3 green faced unamused kids sat at my table, now tucking into the beef and onion pie option we had on standby.
          Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

              We dined on haggis at the Red Lion in Dagnall tonight. We had the prayer of thanks, and the poem. The poem is a bit long and a touch incomprehendible, so the Scottish chap cut three verses out of it, but he still made it as dramatic as only a Jock can do and received a raucus round of applause once we realised he had finished.

              We had a great evening, until I told a lady on the next table the joke about the dog called Porky. I got a slap, so thought it probably best I paid my bill, bid my farewells, and went home.

                    Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

                    No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
