    Talking Robbie Burn's dinner

    Elva, my sister Jane and I went to the Robert Burn's dinner sponsered by the Oregon Scottish Society. We had a wonderful time.
    The haggis was great along with rest of the meal.
    The piping of the haggis was a heart stiring experance and the people were all friendly, so all went well.

    Just go out and hunt doon a haggi, they are wee beasties, but they can be quite elusive. I would suggest looking in a Scottish bakery.

    I guess most of you guys will not yet have heard about this, but there is to be a splendid Burns Night Dinner at The Ferintosh in Dumfries in just under two weeks time, on 27th to be precise! One or two of us are attending so I dare say there might be a photo or twenty posted soon afterwards!!
