You're missing out.

You don't eat the 'bag' - slice it open and enjoy the contents. Give it a go - you won't regret it.

My mother used to serve tripe occasionally. Disgusting stuff. At least the way she cooked it - no idea if it has potential.

cook long & low apparently with plenty of robust flavours. The Portuguese seem to like it.

Haggis is stomach? Bleh! I still remember my disgust when I was a small boy at seeing my mother eat tripe.

They might just, if they enter the ladies competition

Until then, the tartan army be wearing skirts instead of kilts?

I thought this was going to be about Scotland qualifying for a football World Cup.

Like the England Women getting to a World Cup semi-final (in 2015) followed by the men (this year ) maybe the Scotland men's team will qualify for the next World Cup too.

I'd hate to be asked to choose between them , myself.
They're both ambrosia IMHO

Always happy to have both myself.

Where eagles dare, you'll find that Broadswords and Danny Boys go together well.

Interesting version.

Burton & Clint what a combination!

try this about 1:00

A good point. It also pains me, as a resident of the Metropolitan Borough of Bury (although with a Manchester postcode I hasten to add), to concede that haggis is superior to black pudding.

...Broadswords, DannyBoy...

What on Earth is or was a Danny Boy? A small garrulous Irishman you can wield in battle to talk your opponent to death?

... we were doing the tour of Urquhart castle and there was a guy dressed in battle gear with an assortment of weapons (Claymores, Broadswords, DannyBoy's) ...

So good she even had a shave for it.

Did she pursue the hirsute look to avoid over exciting Alex?

[Whorty]

Has anyone here actually tried haggis? The name puts me off!

Yep, it's lovely. But then I'm from the Black Country where scratchings, grey peas & bacon and faggots are our regional favourites, so maybe I'm not the best judge
