Put on yer kilts, lads and lassies. Your tam, as well. And wear your heather perfume, if you've got it. ( It's one of the prettiest smells on earth.)
Have a scotch - preferably single malt - and some shortbread.
Or haggis, neeps and 'tatties.
(Or oatmeal. We Scots* love our oatmeal. Butterscotch will not be considered inappropriate either. )
Read some of the bonny poet's beautiful words!!
But don't get overly-comfortable with the sheep. :-)
*Even those by descent or association, or even those just looking to ha'e a gud tyme!!
I've practically missed Dear Robbie's day. Can I carry it over until tomorrow? I'm thinking scotch and oatmeal sound like a pleasing combination.
