First time properly reading Burns. Surprisingly radical. Not in a middle-class way, but actually so.

Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the pudding-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm :
Weel are ye wordy o'a grace
As lang's my arm.

Tonight is Burn's night, when we celebrate Scotland's most famous poet son, Robert Burns.

Before you eat your haggis, tatties, neeps and whiskey sauce remember to always make your address to a Haggis

@SrRochardBunson well there's a whole formal thing a "Burns supper" where you go out to a gathering starting with a piper, reciting poems, stabbing a haggis🔪 , eating haggis and drinking. Much meriment. Supposed to be celebrating Robert Burns. Rules for how to do it properly
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burns_su
Scots at home can cut to just the eating bit. Don't Google what's inside haggis🤣 If you can ignore that l,it's completely delicious.😋

We live near the Bachelors' Club, the literary and debating society founded, in the village of Tarbolton in South Ayrshire. Needless to say, we'll be celebrating tonight with a of haggis, neeps, tatties, and a few whiskies. Happy :)

In honor of Burns Night, here's a bit of art from the The McManus in Dundee, Scotland.

"Cultural Guise - Dangerous Sweeties", 1982
Mixed media sculpture by Eric Marwick (born 1946)

"One of a series exploring cultural identity, this work is a sharp comment on the United States. Marwick's stereotyped Scotsman wears the kilt and Glengarry, beer cans swinging from his belt. America is depicted as a door to door salesman. 'Uncle Sam' crouches behind a mountain of missiles - traded as if they were sweeties."

Burns supper is a celebration of the life and poetry of the poet  (25 January 1759 – 21 July 1796), the author of many Scots poems.
Traditionally, the host begins proceedings by saying , which was written by Burns and believed to have been first read by the Earl of Selkirk: “Some hae meat and canna eat/ And some wad eat that want it;/ But we hae meat, and we can eat,/ Sae let the Lord be thankit.”

Whilst traditionally associated with New Year’s Eve this is also sung on Burns Night. At the end of the meal the host gives a speech at which point everyone stands and sings Auld Lang Syne, crossing their arms and joining hands at the line “And here's a hand, my trusty fere!”.

A friend and I have been asked to perform a couple of songs at a neighbour's not so traditional Burns Night (there is haggis and though!) and we'll be doing this alongside two or three other Scottish songs.

This is not the tune that most folk will recognise and it has all the verses that are usually missed out.
