    It’s neeps mate. Nips are measures of whisky. Or a chap from Japan.

    A mate of mine is holding a celebration party combining Burns night with the Chinese New year
    His party invite reads Chinese/Burns night
    I wasn't going to go initially but I'm now attending after he twisted my arm ...

    Not to be confused with neeps. I'm having neeps & tatties tonight, but no haggis sadly. Settling for salmon...

    Had dinner a few years ago with Kenny.

    He said to me ‘You remind me of Gary Birtles’, My wife asked if I looked like him.

    Kenny replied no ‘he’s a see you next tuesday as well.’

    I was in hospital earlier and this nurse said to me.

    Wee, sleekit, cowrin, tim'rous beastie,
    O, what a panic's in thy breastie!
    Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
    Wi' bickering brattle!
    I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee
    Wi' murd'ring pattle

    It was the Burns Unit.

    Burns night thread with no photos of Jacob Burns. The BBS standards are slipping. This would never have happened back in the day.
