I went with a colleague who is in love with all things Scotish. He ran around until he found a cd of "Donny keep your trowser's on". We had dinner with a couple of his sailing buddies. The vendor was paying so usually you get taken to a great place. We were in a dive; a dive however with the largest collection of single malts in all of Glasgow. My friend tried them all (I am not a scotch drinker so I had to content myself with warm beer). But one thing was missing; haggis. It was out of season we were told with great formality and one only has real haggis in season. But we did find some in the airport shop and my friend enthusiastically told me we would have it upon our return to the US. I was thrilled (not). But luck was on my side. When we got to US customs they would not let the haggis in. Customs said that it was not properly packed. I think that they just don't let it in because it is, well, haggis
