"Chips with haggis? ··· now that does sound like a gastronomic delight... "

Actually a haggis supper (ie deep fried haggis and chips) is one of the most common things to get in a Scottish fish and chips shop. And it is usually great. Apart from the batter the haggis tatses not much different from normal. It is far more common than the much publicised but probably not that often eated deep fried mars bar :-)
