OH stop it please - I rememebr the rolls as well and other 'delicacies' - sour plums and - oh bother forgotten what its called - big concoction made in a pan, not much of clue really - not a casserole. Damn - memory is flagging - used to enjoy these lovely treat when visiting in either the Loch Lomond area or over in the 'Kingdom' - it is all bringing on a fit of nostalgia for my Scots friends and their wonderful warmth and hospitality and the celebrations at New Year - well!! Wot an enterprising thing to do with haggis too...

It's all a matter of taste - we had one for tea on Tuesday , scrummy !! Back in the late 1970's I worked for a spell in Leicester and travelled home every second weekend for a break As well as dirty washing etc there were orders from the ladies in the office for twelve "Plain" loaves and six large haggis. One enterprising lady used to open up the haggis and make haggisburgers. She then would go to the "Scotch Roll Shop" near Filbert Street football ground and buy rolls, as opposed to english cob's, and put her burgers on the rolls !!! Whatever turns you on , as they say !
