As a resident of Scotchland I will be celebrating tonight
by partaking of haggis, neeps and tatties before getting riotously drunk and fighting with the neighbours.*

*not really. I've got an early start tomorrow. 5am FFS.

Isn't that a typical Wednesday night?
'Rents were from Glasgow btw, so I'm allowed to say this.

A typical Wednesday night in Glasgow perhaps
but through here in Edinburgh we're usually far more genteel, don't you know.

Did all the Scotchborn jocks get a special dole payment today so they can go out on the "pish"?

The monks at Buckfast Abbey have been working overtime these past couple of weeks

Culture mate.
In Scotland, Buckfast is associated with drinkers who are prone to committing anti-social behaviour when drunk, especially drinkers under 18 years old. Its high strength (15% ABV/14.8% in the Republic of Ireland), relatively low price and sweetness are characteristics that are thought to appeal to underage drinkers.[5] The drink also has a very high caffeine content, with each 750ml bottle containing the equivalent of eight cans of cola.[6]

Deep fried pizza?

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Wed 25 Jan 2012, 11:02, Reply)

fucksocks, no.
Although, I suppose I could. Out of tradition and that. There's the thorny issue of whether to batter it first, though.

MUST be battered or it'd be disgusting. :+(

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Wed 25 Jan 2012, 11:07, Reply)

nah, you can have both
since I've tried neither I'm not in a position to say, but apparently battering it makes it better for you as it absorbs less fat. The mind quite literally boggles.

My local chippie in Glasgow did deep-fried cheese and onion sandwiches.
Available battered or unbattered.

None of my Glaswegian friends had living grandparents.

A battered cheese and onion sandwich might just actually work
hmm...........

Try a haggis topped pizza for yourself.
And a deep fried Mars Bar.

since deep fried confectionary is merely a ploy to fuck up tourists
no ta.

haggis on pizza, though. Hmmm.

I'd eat that.
Mind you as someone who's been eating Buzz Lightyear Xmas decorations all morning, this is not the ringing endorsement it might first appear.
