How do you put together a Burns supper?

http://www.geocities.com/Nashville/S...is_recipes.htm is just one I've found on the web, done in a cooking bag, and with many options. Knowing the Japanese
interest in bagpipes and kilts I think you may actually be able to procure it locally, though of course price may be excessive.

Lovely! Excellent link. I just about choked laughing when I read this:

Disclaimer: If you jam 5 dowels into a haggis it kinda resembles a bagpipe, but only if you jam 5 single malts into yourself first. There, that makes this article "bagpipe related"

All of the aforementioned web sites are good places to start; In addition, I would add:

In addition, a copy of the late Hugh Douglas's Burns Supper Companion is a must for any organiser. I'm not sure if it's still print, but there may be copies on ebay, alibris, etc. Douglas was a noted Burnsian and his guidebook is highly recommended.

For entertainment, I would recomend a friend of mine's DVD (shameless plug):

I'll add some more thoughts later...
