Love your images, especially the reflection.  But then, I've always been interested in abstracts.

Roma's quote is from the poem, 'Tam o' Shanter' by Robert Burns - some of his most evocative writing- do please research it if you do not know it.

 That's is more than a poem, David, that is a paean of praise to a magical dish............ :)

(magical in the sense that it must have taken a wizard to dream up the recipe!)

I think I've got the reason why the Scottish football team (if such is the word!!) can't win anything. It's all down to dubious offel, bashed neeps and champit tatties :P ;D

Nice pictures Mr B.

Yeah true.... so many wizards reputedly ARE deranged and dangerous.  Anyone who can come up with cooking methods involving wrapping in animal stomachs has some sorts of issues I'm sure.  :P  Or was it psychedelic mushrooms that inspired?  ;D ;D

I know, I know.... I'm going to be drummed out of the society for that...... or should that be piped out?  :-\

OK, I'm going now.......

Did that great poet, McGonagall, ever celebrate the haggis?

If he had Gerry, would we have understood?

OK I know, this is scraping the barrel (after the ad)
