Would anyone like to hear a wee Scottish Joke?

Scottish Hospital

%26gt;

%26gt;An Englishman is being shown around a Scottish hospital. At the end of the

%26gt;

%26gt;tour he is shown into a ward with a number of patients who show no signs of

%26gt;

%26gt;injury. He goes to examine the first man he sees, and the man proclaims:

%26gt;

%26gt;"Fair fa' yer honest sonsie face, Great chieftain o' the puddin' race!".

%26gt;

%26gt;The Englishman, somewhat taken aback, goes to the next patient, who

%26gt;

%26gt;immediately launches into "Some hae meat, and canna eat, and some wad eat

%26gt;

%26gt;that want it, But we hae meat and we can eat, and sae the Lord be thankit."

%26gt;

%26gt;The next patient sits up and declaims: "Wee sleekit cow'rin tim'rous

%26gt;

%26gt;beastie, O what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae

%26gt;

%26gt;hasty, wi' bickering bl'attle. I wad be laith to run and chase thee, wi'

%26gt;

%26gt;murdering

%26gt;

%26gt;prattle." "Well," says the Englishman to his Scottish colleague, "I see you

%26gt;

%26gt;saved the

%26gt;

%26gt;psychiatric ward for the last." "No, no," the Scottish doctor corrects him,

%26gt;

%26gt;"This is the

%26gt;

%26gt;Serious Burns Unit."

For those who don't know, Robert Burns was a Scottish writer, musician and poet. His most famous work, known the world over, is Auld Lang Syne, sung at Hogmanay, when bringing in the new year. His birthday, 25 January, is celebrated by Scots across the world, with a traditional Burns supper, usually consisting of Haggis, neeps and tatties. The Haggis is traditionally piped to the table, and the host stabs the haggis while quoting the above poem, before serving it up to the guests.
