It's Burns night tomorrow and I join in with my Scottish family in celebrating the great poet and working class hero, Robert Burns along with the haggis and of course the Kilt.
I've just come downFrom the Isle of SkyeI'm not very big and I'm awful shyAnd the lassies shout when I go byDonald, where's your troosers?
Let the wind blow highLet the wind blow lowThrough the streets, in my kilt I'll goAll the lassies say helloDonald, where's your troosers?

DeleteHa! Jx
DeleteHello! Leyendecker's Scotsman has got quite the third leg going on!
ReplyDeleteStill, I'm sure it can't compare with your own bulging haggis. Will it be piped in?
I love anything by Leyendecker.

OK, now I'm smiling! It's been a long day, so thank you, sweetpea! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you found it as jolly as I did posting it.
DeleteI love this post! I haven't heard that song before but I love it along with the video. I bought a kilt pin of a Thistle from the online shop of Scottish Artisans Co-op in honor of my great Grandfather. I also have a handmade Venetian mask from a shop in Venice that I bought online during the pandemic when tourist ships weren't coming in.
ReplyDeleteIt makes things extra special when you can buy directly from Artisans that are keeping traditional and cultural crafts alive in their communities.
Andy Stewart was a big star here and had his own TV show in the 60s.
DeleteI'm glad to have put you back in touch with your roots.
