Well...it's about 71 degrees F here in Florida where I am and I'm tired of this cold weather. Give me a wee bit more warmth and humidity to warm my bones. Actually, it's not as cold as it has been for the last several days. :wink:

As for those haggis running around the place...I must need new glasses 'cause I can never find them! :roll:

Regards,
Anne H

Hi Anne

I think that there are times when they put a lot of haggii in all at once and other times when they don't put any in at all. The green screen is a giveaway that a haggis is there, but there are times when a haggis is there without any green screen. For example, I have never seen a green screen in Times Square.

It's getting close to the end of the haggis season, so they seem to be getting scarcer.

Even Tom Cruise is getting in on the act - he's currently parading around in Leicester Square!

Hi Wilma

Is that what all the fuss with the red carpet is about? I thought that we were about to see a parade of haggii. :D

Did anyone win anything? No luck for me I'm afraid.
