The 'Address to a Haggis' is one of the most recited pieces that Robert Burns ever created.
It is a major part of every Burns Supper the world over, but sadly, very few people understand what is being said. Thankfully this episode of Burns Banter bursts through the old Scots language and explains whats going on in the Address. The language is explained, the images are made clear and I even tell you when and where the poem is believed to have been written.
If you want to finally understand what is going on in 'Address to a Haggis' then this is the episode for you!
Download it, listen to it, and you'll be ready for your next Burns Supper>
Enjoy!
