Things to Remember Tonight: 1. Keep pets inside and play classical music to hide the noise of bagpipes. 2. Keep your haggis in a tin and only take it out when you plan to read a poem to it. 3. Never go back to a lighted haggis. 4. Burns should be run under cold water immediately.

Burns Night tonight, and not a raspberry to be had anywhere in Edinburgh!
