Another Very Alternative Burns Night at The Grisly Pear
a light hearted, irreverent, reverence to Scotlands beloved poet Rabbie Burns. Drink some whisky, read some poetry, sing a song, have some artery clogging Scottish ‘cuisine’, and try your hand at the famous Grisly Pear Burns Night poetry competition. Competition is fierce and the donner kebab pot noodle cup is up for grabs
