Fish Supper and Deep Fried Haggis

I've been a little slack posting some more photos from the trip, but I've just come back to work, only to take most of the week off with the flu. Most of my time has been spent in bed, or reading Dean Koontz, and catching up on the Daily Show and Colbert Report.

This, as most of the posts seem to be, is about food. Pictured above is a fish supper, with some deep fried haggis! Andrew managed to pick out the haggis in Glasgow, and it's also wonderful deep fried.

When I got back to Hobart, I was also in for a treat. Wallaby lasagne! Jodie knows it's one of my favourites, and is wonderful reheated for lunches. She is also helping me to leave enough so that there is some left over for lunch...

Here's what I had in Perth, after drinking Drambuie the night before. I'm not sure why, but the Croissant was the best option... The black pudding was excellent. I remember after my trip to Scotland in 1999, that I was sooooo relieved to know that black pudding was made with pig's blood, not cow's. Especially not mad cows. In particular, Uncle George and I were going out to see the Dundee United vs. Dundee derby, and Aunty Margaret had made dinner. The dinner was the biggest full breakfast I'd ever encountered. Among the ingredients were [and I'm bound to have forgotten some] bacon, eggs, sausage, black pudding, white pudding [yes, both], baked beans, hash brown, toast...

[Update 27/8] A quick update for my Dad. Dunee United won the game. I have never been to a Dundee United match and seen them loose, in fact they have won every game I've seen. George thought I might like to get season tickets! I also recently [in the last few years] found out that Dad is actually a Dundee fan!!!!
I also ordered both the coffee [that came with the breakfast] but a large Irn Bru as well.
