ya puddin’, ya haggis, yer cheap lousy habits

burns’ night is 25 january, tomorrow. but clearly it was on my mind, as the haggis is notoriously, ‘the chieftain of the puddin’ race’.

maybe i will reflect more on our national poet tomorrow. today we have a big storm in scotland. its a red warning – the earth’s protective atmosphere is today dangerous to life. all the schools are closed.

except one: tough school, near kirkton of tough. it takes more than a bit of weather to deter the tough children of tough.
