I love Scotland, nice people, beautiful places ! Wonderful!
Jan 27. So it's over for 2024. My wife and I just ran our fouteenth Burns Supper here in Panama for a party of around twenty. It followed very similar lines to what's described here. The only additional elements were a communal singing of Auld Lang Syne and some Scottish country dancing for those folk who had the energy. We're both Scots so we are particulary proud of "our" poet. Thanks to everyone who celebrates Burns Night and keeps alive the immortal memory.
Lol. Most recent comments are 1 yr ago... now here it is, burns eve, and I'm here. This will be my... 5th Burns night, I think?
I’ve got my scotch, Scottish ale, and my poetry books. Just looking for dinner.
We attended our first Burns Night Supper. We enjoyed it so much. An amazing trinkets table display 9:18 each family name crest & tartans Bagpipes from the local HS. Young Women Scottish dancers entertained us beautifully. A delicious, traditional meal. Tribute to Lad & Lassie by a happily married couple toasting tributes to each other. Poetry recitations, tributes to R Burn’s memory & ending with singing Auld Lang Syne together it was so fun!
Very excited for Burns Night this year. Just got new flashes from USA Kilts for the occasion
It's also a great event to bring in some local celtic performers.
Have a great Burns Night ❤❤❤
I am doing the address to the haggis for one of the groups my wife goes to here in the North of Scotland.
Another great video Erik
My family has history with Robert Burns. He had visited some of my ancestors.
Going to my first Burns Night in a couple weeks!! I have my sash and flashes ready!
Have fun!
One of our traditions is sticky toffee pudding with extra sauce for dessert!
Sticky toffee pudding and ice cream is the king of desserts! U would be welcome here anytime!
I'm attending my first Burns Supper on Saturday, I'm now looking forward to it even more.
Don my rocker garb in my youth,for a more mature look in a jacket ,knit sweater & the crowning glory the kilt! I think it looks more masculine& distinguished...
I'm giving the Address this Friday; I'll be thinking of the K&C family as I do!
Going to be hard to top that!! Great video ❤
Got my haggis, good scotch and my tartan.
Thank you! Attending my first Burns Night Supper this week. 🍻
Our Scottish Rite of Free Masonry held our first Burns' Night this month (logistically it made sense to have it on our meeting night). As 1st Knight of our Knights of St. Andrew, I was tasked with organizing, and cooking, for it. It is hard to find a piper in central Alabama, so we had a recording of "Brose and Butter" for the presentation. We also had a video of a Scotsman reciting "Address to the Haggis". We piped it in -- wearing the traditional KSA glengarry and sash -- with a Knight with claymore leading a knight twirling two bottles of scotch whiskey and then me with the Haggis on its "Groaning trencher". Cut the haggis along with the poem, etc. The meal was: cock-a-leekie soup, tatties and neeps (Oh, use rutabaga, BTW. It's more colorful and tastier than turnips) and pot roast (with carrots and onions in au-jus). We left the haggis for any who wished to sample. It's Alabama -- I expected there to be few takers. There wasn't a scrap left and numerous people came up to me to comment on how much they loved the haggis. I was floored.
Amongst our guests was the Grand Master of Masons for the State of Alabama, his senior officers and their Ladies. They all were thoroughly enchanted by the program and food. The Grand Master later said: "We go to a lot of banquets. This was the best I've ever attended. Both the food and the program."
If you want to put on a Burns Night, be not afraid. It can be done simply or formally as is your need.
You'll never regret it!
People are frequently surprised to find that haggis is rather good. So don't hold back on size, it's likely to go quickly.
We love doing one with our family each year
I attended my first Burns Night supper this past Saturday with my wife and my 2 youngest children. It was a great experience and I look forward to the next one. Slainte Mhath.
Dearest lads and lasses; you brought a wee tear to my eye and warmed the cockles of my heart with your proper Burn's night video. Inquiry: perchance will you provide your whiskey sauce recipe please? I'd love to taste a bit of it on my tatties.

The whiskey sauce looks a bit peely-wally. Steak pie is also very common for burns night. Or a good bowl of stovies. Vegan& veggie haggis more popular with younger Scots than traditional haggis too.
O, I went to a Burns Night Supper years ago here in Metro Detroit as a +1 in a group of about 30. I like tartan, I like Burns, so it sounded good. And it wasn't.
The food was appalling. It was inedible and smelled like a smoldering garbage dump. The reading started out fine, but gradually devolved into drunken rambles. I don't drink at all, there was a lot of alcohol. A LOT. Which may explain how the guests were able to try choking down the foods. My date and I left early, right about the time some of the guests had a good snootful and started talking about what was under their kilts. I was told that, later, there was bagpipe music, questionable dancing, more drinking, and some butt cheeks made appearances.
Sounds like my kinda night!!
have any kilts been made from alpacka wool/
I’m pretty sure it’s a no. There’s a company 2mins from my house that makes the wool and all the tartans for worldwide shipping etc I’ve never heard of them doing an alpacas fabric.
You will get a bespoke fashion designer doing one or a accessory being spun in alpaca but a kilt or kilts like as in many for buying at a “normal” price I would say no. I will double check my friend does work for the company.
Don’t forget when the oldest man there ritually pulls aside his kilt to piss on the youngest, thereby passing the baton to a new generation.
Neaps does mean turnip but Scots call swede a turnip and a turnip a swede, so if you're not Scottish you probably need to use swede.
My highland ancestors did everything to fight against Jacobites. We do nothing in memory of Burns. Im neither in favor or English or Scottish monarchs. Actually my family is all about self governance because of monarchs.
Robert Burns has nothing to do with the Jacobites! He mostly writes about life in rural Scotland and the working class man!
He wasn't William Shakespeare who made a habit of writing about Kings and Queens.
"my highland ancestors" I am guessing you are American, no Scottish person would say that. I guess you never lived in a working class rural Scottish village speaking Scots, like myself! If you did, you would know why Robert Burns means a lot to the people in Rural Scotland.
