I find it OK. Not what I'd choose any other night of the year mind.

PS when I was young I was led to believe a haggis was a one-legged animal.

Also forgot to get some smoked haddock ( non existent in cloggers) to make cullen skink.

Will just have to raise a glass with an appropriately aged malt.

Ah yes, we've also got cullen skink as a starter. I can't remember having this before, but I do like smoked haddock so here's hoping!

No haggis here as it's also Welsh Valentine's day today and so I will be having a pot-noodle.

Why is it anything involving Scotland has to involve alcohol?

Could I eat a deep fried mars bar instead?

I'll choose a suitable malt from the collection and open a tin of Grant's haggis which is far superior to any other version.

Indeed, I shall be partaking of the Haggis, which will be piped in and given its blessing or whatever it's called by a Scotsman called Kenny, who once played for Berwick Rangers and Cowdenbeath.

Plus a wee dram of a decent single malt but I'm not sure which at the moment.

Oh God, is it tonight? Hope the pub isn't decked out in tartan and trying to flog deep-fried Aldi Haggis

I will, with what I hope is a very good 30 year Speyside that Santa got me
