Bogor Burns Supper

Cheers

After two years in Bogor, we finally managed to organise a Burns supper, complete with vegetarian haggis (halal too!), mashed tatties, mashed pumpkin (neep substitute), several bottles of good single malt whiskey, an English trifle (sacrilege!),  and a collection of friends willing to consume everything in return for reciting a poem or two.

Recitals included Robbie Burns, Japanese Haiku and Buddhist verse, Roald Dahl, Indonesian poetry, and a special verse or two about environmental risk assessments and vegetarian haggis by our visiting bard from Canada.

A good time was had by all, and most importantly nobody asked for ice in their whiskey, despite the balmy evening.
