They were all false. So sorry to let you down, Sidey.
Nancy, after reading your comment I did another search but I couldn’t find one site that agreed with you.
Was that post fun? Should I do another like it in the future?
By the way, Kate & Viv: all haggis-lovers are now banned from this blog for being, well, haggis-lovers.*
*Another false fact. I need the hits.**
**Or to be hit…I can never remember which.
I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.

For you, Tilly, I’ll convert to meatloaf.

I appreciate the sentiment 🙂 Do you know, I don’t think I’ve ever eaten meatloaf. Does it taste anything like haggis?
