Burns Night

It’s only a matter of time before someone brings it up, so I’d best get in there first. Some of you might be aware that tonight is Burns Night and, yet again, I’m a disgrace to my nation. A Polish colleague had to remind me today, even though someone mentioned it in an email to me really.

So, my confession.

Burns Night might mean a little more to me if I had the slightest affinity with one of :-

1) Kilts. (Which I’m reliably informed weren’t standard dress in Burns’ lifetime anyway)
2) Whisky. (All the reliable information I have on this comes from Mogens)
3) Haggis. (There is a wealth of reliable information here)

But I don’t. So that’s that then. Now, sadly, I have to go and do some work.

Cheers,

Doug Burns
