But no neeps and tatties

I'm off out tonight to join others for a 60th birthday surprise meal for a friend. In fact, she only lives across the road but we see each other once a year if we're lucky. And then it's usually in Sainsburys. That's the problem when children grow up and don't need collecting from school, and mums go out to work; we lose touch with each other.

Husband is staying home - it's a girls' night out - and cooking his own dinner. He's having haggis that was discovered in my spring clean of the pantry. My uncle bought it back from Scotland for us about 2 years ago and it passed its Best Before date in March.

Ach, it's tinned; it'll be fine. And Husband has the malt whisky with which to toast it.

You can get tinned haggis? Hmmmmm!

Not quite the same without the whisky gravy.

Hope you have a good time :-)

I didn't know you could get it in a tin either!

Tinned haggis! ROFL!! Why is that so funny?

Your husband sounds like mine. 'What can go wrong with tinned stuff? Hand it over!' LOL!

Apparently it was very nice, katney.

I did, cherrypie, thank you.

Husband enjoyed it, welshcakes.

Well, precisely, jay, 'just because the coleslaw had a Use Before date of 1st July is no reason for not eating it,' he says, and then wonders why he's up all night with a bad stomach!
