Isn't it good to see the AB staff acknowledging Scotland's Bard.

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.

And translated:

Fair and full is your honest, jolly face,
Great chieftain of the sausage race!
Above them all you take your place,
Stomach, tripe, or intestines:
Well are you worthy of a grace
As long as my arm.

Never seen a haggis that long. They were always spherical when I had one. Maybe they keep the long ones north of the border, perhaps they are the most tasty ?
It's the grace that's long, not the haggis.

I noticed they have them in M&S. They're small immature ones, about the size of an aubergine.
Oh. I don't say grace these days, I just tuck in.
