Do not joke with Brian Ruckley about haggis.
- - September 13th, 2007
Over at Nethspace, Brian Ruckley responds gamely and hilariously to the “Haggis Question.”
“You do know every year in Scotland several tourists who are flippant about haggis get hunted down and slaughtered like curs by howling, kilt-clad, claymore-wielding mobs, don’t you? It’s virtually a national sport.”
Read the whole interview here.
Though the world of Winterbirth was partly inspired by Brian’s native Scottish Highlands, it is (so far, at least) haggis-free.

It was very fun, as are all Neth’s “Questions Five” interviews. Nice!
