Robert Burns night

Many people know robert burns and if you dont heres a short history lesson. Robert Burns poet farmer and many other things robert was known for his poetry he lived in scot land and read alot poetry back then was writtin in latin and was for only rich peoplebut robert burns he wrote poetry about farming in the region he lived in he also wrote it in his areas native tongue so the common folk could read it. so every year around my area me having scottish ancesters went to it with my family also they have highland dancing which i and my sisters used to do. every year they hold this burns night and it consists of highland dancing bagpiping and most importantly HAGGIS if you do not know what haggis is its a mixture of spices oats barly sheep liver and other left over things all baked in a sheeps stomach its basically like this really good pudding.second most importantly a scottish keyly band(im not so sure about the spelling) the one we had was flown in from scotland. i reccommend going to a burns night near you they are usually very fun also you get to watch drunk scors men try to dance its funny)
