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.

Gonna go hunting now.

I will be partaking of the Burns Night haggis tonight, courtesy of the missus being Scotch. A translation of the above, for anyone who is interested:

"Good luck to you and your honest, plump face,

Great chieftain of the pudding race!

Above them all you take your place,

gut, stomach-lining, or intestine,

You're well worth a grace

as long as my arm."

you can beat a good Burns supper: friends, whisky, good food (what more can you ask for than a sheeps stomach full of offal and barley!!!) and English people trying to recite poems in the old Scots language ( most would more chance of understanding it if it was in Mongolian!). Anyway here's to the celebration of Dumfries's most famous resident (that is until the Doonhamers win the premier league followed by champions league)
