Well, yes, I do - and I'm not sure that it's just because my mother  
was Scottish. I had a very pleasant Burns Night not so long ago when  
my host (in London, but originally from Glasgow) read the poem (you  
did know there was a poem, didn't you) and offered the haggis  
round... mind you, I think they've rather cleaned up the haggis' act  
since Burns' day (food hygiene-wise anyway). And the single malt  
whisky does help it go down.
