Haggis is like the taxi trade in edinburgh.

An unpalatable skin controlling an offal substance.

What's the difference between a haggis and taxi licensing?

A haggis is merely offal.

:wink:

A haggis has heart.

What's the difference between a haggis and a Regulatory Committee member councillor?

There's more chance that the haggis cares.

If you want proof of the puddin ask yourself why the Great Robert Burns wrote the poem "Adress too the Haggis", Easy, Robert burns was not a great fisherman but a great Haggis hunter he was, the poem "Adress to a Haggis", Was to the Haggis that got away!!!

The Haggis is Hunted, yes between Hogmany and Burns night but only on a Sunday. Haggis hunters dress in full Scottish dress, Kilt, Sporran and most importantly the Scian Dhu (spelt wrongly) The scian dhu is the wee knife that goes in by the side of the sock.

On the Sunday Morning all the haggis hunters gather at the bottom of the hill and spread across, before ascending upwards they reach in to their Sporrans and have a wee toast to the Haggis Hunters o the past, The hunt starts with the Cry "TOO A HAGGIS ya wee bickerin beastie",

Upon catchin a Haggis the Haggis Hunter will cry out loudly "there's one", some will cry "there's another one", this goes on until the clock strikes 3pm, it's then that the Haggis are counted and the top Haggis hunter o the day is awarded the tail o the largest Haggis caught that day, when the Haggis hunting season is over the Haggis hunter with the biggest tail wins the title of the Haggis hunter o the year award.

I once told this story to a Norwegian lady in my Taxi who worked for the Norwegian tourist board, after finishing the strory she said, "YA WE HAV SIMILAR ANIMALS IN NORWAY", "THEY ARE CALLED JASBARS"!!!

I quite happily left it at that as the potential for exchange trips is good for tourism :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the compliment!!!

They do say that eating Haggis is good for your virality but if your also saying that a Haggis has more brains then given the fact that many intellegent men eat Haggis i do see where your coming from :lol: :lol:

What's that poem Jim? With the words "Wee Bickerin beastie", C'mon YOU love to Bicker, i think that poem sums you up perfectly :wink: :wink: nudge nudge

If someone would like to post that poem, it would be welcome :D
