I had a personal early Burns' night, but took a haggis on my holiday to Spain and it went down well with my friends here. However...
some are planning a big Brexit Party for Friday...
I guess that's fine if you believe it's a good thing.
Personally I don't, but of course I defend everyone's right to celebrate or commiserate, whichever way you think.
Just for the record, I am sad we are leaving after so many years, so many years free from wars in Europe, so many years of freedom of movement, so many years where the fear of another Auschwitz could be taken as an impossibility...
Anyway, whatever you voted, let's hope the transition is peaceful and meaningful,. free from pettiness, full of building bridges, full of hope.
Our politicians can't be trusted to follow this model, but we, the common people, must have that right, and pursue it.
Good luck, all my British citizen friends...but don't forget our friends from the rest of Europe either!
