8) depends on what flavour of haggii you want.they are now a protected species and can only be caught when there is a full moon. they can only be eaten on 25th january or they could be prepacked and frozen. in the case of the welsh haggis aka paul then the juice is extracted and bottled for later consumption.
rumour has it that we may be going ecosse international but that may be a long way off. 2 months at least. anyway raymond and sean are on holiday on the wrong side of the wall but they will survive even though they say the beer is like virgins p..h. haste ye back.......hoots mon.

Hi Ray, they say the haggis looks a bit like a hedgehog with a snout like a trumpet, when are they in season?, all they ever get to shoot down here is bl**dy pheasants!!

Did you mean to write peasants there Larry?, ...i`m pretty sure they are pheasants as they all fly around and then dive under your car at the last minute!, typical pheasant behaviour

8) is that the pheasant plucker the well known printing error who says the
island has pigeon text and who relieves himself on an ecosse banner.
