Bunch of HEATHENS....
A Burns Supper is where Gentlemen (and in the last century) Ladies celebrate the birth of the greatest Poet who ever lived, note: the birth not the death, the Man is Immortal.
It a damn fine night out, Official Speeches: The Selkirk Grace, The Address to the Haggis, The Immortal Memory, Address to the Lassies, A reply from the Lassies, the Toast to Auld Ayr. Unofficial stuff, reading of his poems, usually some of his songs are perfomed and if you're really lucky you'll have a recitation of Tam O'Shanter then GREATEST poem EVER written, (then again If i'm not doing it it won't be that good ;-) )
Unusually I don't have one this year first time in 25 years, I'll miss it!!
