At the hospital for my follow up appointment, as I was sitting waiting to be seen, the lad next to me says," Fair fae yer honest sonsieface! Great chieftain o' the puddin race!!" I was like, eh?!?!., I turned my head round to the the lady sat on my other side, she said, " Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie!" , As I grabbed the next doctor walking past I said, "excuse me is this the psychiatric ward?" He says, "no this is the burns unit!"
Happy Rabbie Burns day.

Anybody having haggis, neeps and tatties with a wee dram or two tonight? Forgot it was Burn's Night so have low fat spaghetti bol in the go - will have it with a glass of Malbec! 🍷
Not a bad idea. Many years ago a surgeon advised me that if you had planned surgery it was a good idea to avoid alcohol for about a week before as it can affect clotting. Not a hardship really.
Having just been to a Burns Night Mess Dinner, your wee ditty made me laugh because it is written perfectly and I can't tell you how badly a Sassenach pronounced a Burns poem!
