I haven't notices any Porcupines around either. So, there may be an effect there, as well?

No, Haggis are an animal, whereas black pudding is an animal by-product

Got a Haggis whistle for a Christmas a few years back, good for luring wild Haggi down from the hills so they're easier to catch.

I nearly got bitten by a wild haggis once. It was a scary experience.

I just had my first icecream cake. We went around to fetch my son home from a birthday party and we were invited in for icecream cake.

I had previously been under the impression that these icecream cakes from dairy queen were actually cakes, but with icecream around them.

How wrong I was!!

Now I realise that icecream cakes are made solely from icecream!! There is no cake in icecream cakes what-so-ever!

Above or below the knee?

Were you wearing a kilt at the time?

Haggi sleep on Mondays, so you can go skirlling through the heather with a kilt on, wearing the right equipment, and come to no harm other than heather burns on your butt.

One has to be very careful on Mondays when tramping across the peat bogs where the Haggis sleep because if you happen to wake one it will get very upset, whereupon it will slowly, and inexorably pull you deeper into the bog. The only sound being you wailing for help and assistance.

Calling it "ice cream cake" could be viewed as a deception...or at the very least an omission...to those expecting cake in their cake.

You don't even want to think about eating the Hairy Haggis, not only are they hairy on the outside, the hairs go right through.

You can tell that from the hairy haggis that pick their noses. They usually have a bald patch at the back of their heads.

No, that's the male Hairy Bald Headed Haggis (not to be confused with the female of the species who has a full head of hair)

The reason for the bald patch is believed to be a result of the mating rituals, but this has never been proven.

I thought it had more to do with religious application, and showing devotion with a tonsure?
