My favourite Scottish food...mmm...

HAGGIS! My favourite. Ever tried it? Even though it sounds *yuck*, it's not. It's deicious!

You normally eat it with potatoes (known as tatties in Scotland). My relatives and I had 2 and a half Kg of it. Along with the tatties and neeps (turnips) and carrots. Dessert was banoffee pie (banana and toffe pie). It was braw.

I was out shopping today. I found these T-shirts with Scottish words with its meanings. There was one where it said "Eejit" which means that you're a simpleton. Practically all the words were bad except for one, "braw". I'm sure you've already guessed the meaning. Good. The others that I can think of right now is "Numpty", "Fitba'" (no, it doesn't mean football) and some other nasty words.

Here's what a haggis looks like when it's raw:
Err...just look up. The image doesn't move. Don't know why. Sorry.

The haggis is actually inside. The thing that it's wraped in is sheep's stomache. You don't eat that.
