Burns night celebration
We finally experienced our first Burns Night celebration tonight, with our long time friends Diane & Ian, at Nutters restaurant.
On arrival we were welcomed by a Piper, and inside the whole venue had been draped with the saltire! We enjoyed a fabulous meal......if you're interested, you can read the menu in my blip :-) then you might be able to appreciate just how stuffed we were afterwards!!!
The piping in of the haggis saw everyone stand up and applaud as the chef carried a massive haggis through the restaurant, and duly set it alight with brandy and read :
Address to a Haggis
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o the puddin'-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye worthy o' a grace
As lang's my arm.
etc........
