• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

ok who's scottish

:clap:
That reminds me of a joke :D

after a night spent at a local pub; a Scotsman passes out in the local Cemetery...
Early the next morning, a young Lass is in the Cemetery to visit her family. She sees him, and quietly walks over to make sure that he's not dead.
When she sees that he's wearing a Kilt (His typical Friday night wardrobe for the pub...); curiosity takes hold of her...
"What does a Scotsman wear under his Kilt"?
She creeps closer, and gently lifts the corner of it.
He's gone Commando!!! :yikes:
She smiles, pulls a ribbon from her long hair, and gently ties it around his.... :opps:

Several hours later: the "Call of Nature" rouses the man. He stumbles to his feet, and walks to the rear of the Cemetery for a more discreet location...
As he lifts the Kilt; he can't help but notice the ribbon that has been tied-on...

"I Dinno where ye been last night Laddie; but at least ye won first prize!"; he muttered...


EDIT: They even wrote a song about it!

  • 1 sheep stomach





  • 1 sheep liver





  • 1 sheep heart





  • 1 sheep tongue





  • 1/2 pound suet, minced





  • 3 medium onions, minced

[h=6]Directions[/h]
  • Rinse the stomach thoroughly and soak overnight in cold salted water.
  • Rinse the liver, heart, and tongue. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook these parts over medium heat for 2 hours. Remove and mince. Remove any gristle or skin and discard.
  • In a large bowl, combine the minced liver, heart, tongue, suet, onions, and toasted oats. Season with salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Moisten with some of the cooking water so the mixture binds. Remove the stomach from the cold salted water and fill 2/3 with the mixture. Sew or tie the stomach closed. Use a turning fork to pierce the stomach several times. This will prevent the haggis from bursting.
  • In a large pot of boiling water, gently place the filled stomach, being careful not to splash. Cook over high heat for 3 hours.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, if you serve it at all.

It probably tastes real good. But, I just can't get my mind wrapped around it. Just looking at the picture gives me the "want to chuck" reflex. nojoke
