We went across the border to Scotland for the day while we were in Northumberland - to Jedburgh - because we wanted a look round the ruined abbey.
It's a great little town with a lot to offer during the high season, but as Halloween approaches it gets a little spooky, and the hot chocolates call.
We popped into a little gift shop & cafe and decided that the national delicacies should be enjoyed
My partners hot-chocolate was stacked with choc orange pieces that flipped the cream upside down and melted lovingly into the drink
I had a perfectly ordinary burger...
Not so! It's an Angus burger with McSween haggis piled on top!
We know them form back in the days when we got sent PR guff - I used the tote bag they sent me for years! No idea where that's hiding now.
The veggie haggis was my favourite, and we still buy that on occasion - but the meaty one was a bit of a large person for one person to make it through in time. So having a portion while out was a nice treat - it's mostly oats and good things...
This was one heck of a lunch and I didn't need to eat until we were back across the border - a great (if not a bit heavy) hearty meal for the cold days.
