So, Mark and I have been together for eight years and married for five and we’ve never had a Burns Night…..shame on us!! Mark said it is time to be true to his code and so we had a lot of Scottish fun. A bit of late night eBay bidding, falling asleep and forgetting until an email I received a few days later telling me that I’d won some child-sized bagpipes meant that I was able to pipe in the haggis! I wish I’d recorded Mark’s ‘Address to a haggis’, being from Ayr it was as authentic as Burns being there himself!! I was impressed by the Scottish drinking combos if whisky & IrnBru and grappled with the pronunciation of the pudding, give it a go…..cranachan!! My Mum made herself a sash and the boys tartan bow ties – stunning – and the Scottish boys showed us a bit of traditional dancing. And naturally, I took a few shots capturing the traditions!
