Pixie dear, i'm not in Britain, but I am of Scottish heritage (Along with SE Asian, Irish, Spanish, English...) but you eat the stomach as well (at least most of us), a real sausage is made with intestines as well (mass produced tends to be made with a man-made sleeve), part of my SE Asian heritage has blood as an ingredient etc. Hey people eat snails, (I'm among them) and fish eggs. May everyone have a happy, fantastic, prosperous, comfortable, healthy New Years! In the words of Robert Burns, along with the famous recording used in NY Times Square by Guy Lombardo (a guy from my current home town) Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind ? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and days of auld lang syne ? Break out the champagne everyone, who has the confetti? ( I recall a year not to long ago where we celebrated with a sledge hammer to my Camry before sending it to the recyclers ) CHORUS: For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. And surely ye’ll be your pint-stowp ! And surely I’ll be mine ! And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. CHORUS We twa hae run about the braes, and pou’d the gowans fine ; But we’ve wander’d mony a weary fit, sin’ auld lang syne. CHORUS We twa hae paidl’d in the burn, frae morning sun till dine ; But seas between us braid hae roar’d sin’ auld lang syne. CHORUS And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere ! And gies a hand o’ thine ! And we’ll tak a right gude-willie-waught, for auld lang syne. CHORUS
