Are any non-scotch people having a Burns Supper tomorrow?

I must admit I do enjoy a nice haggis, sherry trifle and a few tots of single malt.

But there are no pubs here that are interested to my knowledge.

Come to think about it are any actual scotch people having a Burns Supper?

what on earth are 'scotch' people?
What's that all about then? what are they celebrating?
Do you mean Scottish people? Scotch is a drink.

No I mean scotch people. People from Scotland!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In scotland - scotch describes whisky, pie, broth or eggs

but not people lol
Wardy, I'm more of a Guinness drinker than a Scotch drinker.
Mr O is cooking tomorrow so we'll be having a Burnt supper
You uneducated ignoramous Bewlay, they are called Scots, no wonder they don't like you

Try going to the De Vere Grand Hotel, Brighton, on. Saturday 28th January.

'Scotch' is still in occasional use in England, and common use in North America, where its usage may be considered archaic but is not necessarily pejorative.

Thank you weealllllll.
Non Scottish friends our ours used to do this every year. Thats where i had my first taste of haggisdand although i didnt like the look of it, it tasted bloody lovely!

When i got married at Gretna i bought one home with me to cook! yummy!
25th of January is what is called Burns night to celebrate the poet Robbie Burns .If you want more detail just type Robert Burns And I am Scottish born but been left a long long time and I have a party Sat with Haggis neeps and tatties and believe it or not everyone that is coming is English and they love it .Been doing these parties for years.
now that we have the 'Scotch' bit sorted - yeah Im having haggis, tatties and neep !! but not thinking of burns lol

I will be having Grants tinned haggis tomorrow night with the traditional accompaniment of baked beans and brown rice, chilli sauce and white pepper.

Tinned haggis is unique - it's the only can I have ever met which you have to open at BOTH ends. Having done this and pushed the wee haggis oot, the next thing you do is to mash it to a pulp with a fork.

Well, that's the daftie Scotch fa ye.
tinned corned beef has to have both lids opened as well..
I am not scotch and I will be having a burns supper, but then, I am scottish so that is maybe why!

I am also partial to a bit of grants tinned haggis - I think you have to open the sme for corned beef as well don't you?
why is there a Burns night anyway? Why is it not the whole day?
How many Scottosh people read his works now and how many Scottish people can recite more than a verse of his? I can recite several extracts of Shakepeare, a few of Wordworth's poems, quite a few of heaney's and probably a Sylvia Plaith if i thought hard enough
Alright then so corned beef gets opened at both ends as well, but what gets me about the haggis is that having opened both ends and gently pushed it out whole, the next thing you do is macerate it. What is the point the noo?
