Unfortunately you have missed me reading my poetry. That was yesterday at the Highlander Pub in Paris. In fact, the dinner I'm reading at is organised by the Brit-ish School of Paris and is only intended for parents of children who go there.<BR/><BR/>I suggest you think about organising a Burn's Night dinner of your own for friends... that's what I normally do. There are a couple of shops in Paris which sell Haggis (you can find them <A HREF="http://www.epicerie-anglaise.com/ACCU/accu.php" REL="nofollow">here</A>. It's very easy to cook haggis. You just bake it and serve with mashed turnip and tatties.<BR/><BR/>The main thing is to drink a lot of whisky and to read a few of Burns' poems, preferably not in your head. His poems 'To a Haggis', 'To a Mouse', 'A Red, Red Rose' and 'For A' That and A' That' are a few of the favourites that I'm sure you'll be able to find somewhere on the internet.<BR/><BR/>Short of this, I noticed that the Highlander is having a Burn's night poetry reading and whisky swilling evening which I imagine will be on the 25th Jan - but that date needs checking. Good luck.Jonathan Wonhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09862200571016427320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7083730.post-1137530744172701892006-01-17T21:45:00.000+01:002006-01-17T21:45:00.000+01:00i mean i will pass on your blog :)i mean i will pass on your blog :)I V Y parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464978896769296670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7083730.post-1137530651213371962006-01-17T21:44:00.000+01:002006-01-17T21:44:00.000+01:00Hi Jonathan,Only today I realsied I'd be letting B...Hi Jonathan,<BR/>Only today I realsied I'd be letting Burns day pass without marking the occasion with a huge haggis, neeps and tatties.
