“John Barleycorn was a hero bold, Of noble enterprise, For if you do but taste his blood, 'Twill make your courage rise, Twill make a man forget his wo; 'Twill heighten all his joy.”

Happy Rabbie Day to all.......

Happy Burns night to you all xx

I am holding my annual dinner tomorrow but with a slight change to the menu, instead of clootie dumpling and heather icecream I have had several requests for deep fried mars bars - yuck!!

But one must keep ones guests happy!!

[joggerjayne]

Wow, red ...heather ice cream? Really? That sounds amazing.

[Flyhalf]

We are nae fu', we're nae that fu'
But just a drappie in oor e'e
The cock may craw, the day may daw
But aye we'll taste the barley bree

What's known as an all nighter down south.

Last verse of A Man's a Man for A' That - lovely sentiments.

Then let us pray that come it may,
(As come it will for a' that,)
That Sense and Worth, o'er a' the earth,
Shall bear the gree, an' a' that.
For a' that, an' a' that,
It's comin' yet for a' that
That man to man, the world o'er,
Shall brithers be for a' that.
