    I can assure you fella ... I have the entire 'works'... as a life long member of the 'jaggy bunnet' club

    Matter of fact .. I was married 20 odd years ago in my finest garb including the clan tartan and a velvet doublet ... the doublet is a bit of a sqeeze now .. but the kilt remains a pleasure to wear, and as I annoyingly reminded Mrs Muz recently ... atleast I can still wear my wedding dress .... which didnt go down well (although I was only joking) ... she reminded me that I hadn't produced our two children in the recent years :wub: ... hehe .. and I have to say its hard not to forgive a woman when she quotes that at you .. particularly when a frying pan is being waved

      A few observations/questions from the land of the hamburger.

      1) Are Haggis(es) dangerous?

      2) Can they be domesticated?

      3) Do they need rabies shots?

      4) What other inoculations are required to keep your pet Haggis healthy?

      5) You Scottish folk eat some queer stuff.

      6) Does it taste good with ketchup?

      7) "Hamburger" is derived from German hams.

      8) Are Haggis(es) leash trainable?

      9) Do you also eat "Haggis Fries" when enjoying the fine mix of mush you call Haggis?

          Exceedingly .. on no account should wild ones be approached without the correct calling device , and I dont mean a Samsung Galaxy .. you will need one of these http://www.philipmorrisdirect.co.uk/...-call/product/ they will respond to it .. reluctantly at first but soon you will have them gathering out of curiosity

          Not easily .. many have tried, but often failed .. but once you have mastered the art, they can make a very faithful house pet .. toilet training is the hard bit ... and they have an abject hate of postmen ... I think its the red bags that do it myself ? Oh and knives .. that is one sure way to make it bolt .. pull out a Sgian Dubh .. and watch him take off

          Puleeze can we have senseible questions only ... everyone knows thats a French thing ... and their legs are far too short to make it to the channel ... I mean the Haggis

          No injections but .. Guinness is a favourite .. it perks them up .. I usually chuck a can down their necks before showing them at local fairs and shows .. it gives them a healthy swagger

          I had one that I managed to 'break' in once .. it was a wild thing altogether to start with .. in the end it would go for walks no problem, people would stop and pet it, which it liked. My wife knitted it a wee tartan jacket to keep the heat in

          I go one better and have it curried they can be a bit spicy to start with, but .. Haggis Pakora is a delicacy, best taken with a little pickle masala The Indians go mad for it .. They also pioneered its use as a weapon. Theres several you tube clips of mujahideen launching them using ground mortars with fatal consequences ........a simple error ... too much corriander and cumin





          Well I hope all that brings you up to speed

                            Okay, but what is it? Here, pudding is sweet and usually flavored chocolate or vanilla (or other flavors like ice cream) and made with milk. This stuff was served (on TV) with bacon or ham and potatoes. Other than just learning not to stick my arm between your mouth and a plate of black pudding, I am still in the dark.

                                Aye .. I'm very partial to a wee bit black pudding, and white, although, my wifes family are from Aberdeenshire, and those folks really only eat white puddings, which have a higher oat meal content, which they refer to as mealy puddin's .. it seems the black pudding is more a west coast speciality ... made with conjealed blood
