That'll be the Crisis Open Christmas I take it. Planning to get your bunion sorted again this year, Cali?

ominously sunny cold morning, BUT clouds already gathering over western fells.
Tha watch it for t'wekkend, mark my words!

[mangerton]

Beefy, as Caliban has pointed out, you are in Fine Form, which the whisky will only improve.

My stuffing and I are now going out to miss m's. Fortunately the sun is shining again, which just goes to show........ something.

Aha mangerton - so your goose is cooked!!
Bon appétit to all here, may your sprouts be sweet and crunchy. I had a present of my fave - chocolate covered ginger and also I have a box of M&S marizipan collection (totally adore marzipan and ginger, if someone put the two of them together ......... <swoon>
A survey said the first drink of Christmas day occurs at 11am - well here, at this late hour, I've just had my first glass of bubbles and they've gone straight up my nose resulting in a fit of the sneezums!! I am now off to turn my pigs in blankets and contemplate the mysteries of gravy. Happy eating, one and all.

[Padraig]

Anna, I wish I was in your kitchen.
Drinks, marzipan, pigs, gravy, swooning, drinks, sprouts, bubbles,.....
Say no more.
I have a great cure for sneezums, but I hesitate to itemise the exact procedure......

[eighthobstruction]

Just roasted a chicken....too busy to do rest....so my favourite chicken sandwiches....I too like marzipan and ginger (so much I gave it away as presents<thorntons>) abd didn't keep any for myself....BUT.... I do have entire Lemon merangue tart to myself....xxxx8O

Yes, it all sounds absolutely superb. A bit late for the first drink at 13.44, though! Catering at miss m's was deliciously toothsome also, although turkey based rather than goose, Anna.

Not long back, and I'll save Dr Who for tomorrow evening, I think.

I hope all here had a great day and that Santa was good to you all.

[mangerton]

J.BUT.... I do have entire Lemon merangue tart to myself....xxxx8O

Is that a lemon tart or a meringue?

Naw, you're right - it's a lemon tart.

(Old Scottish joke, and a lot better than some I've seen out of crackers this year. )

[Anna]

Oh Goodness, what a perfect day! I was stuffed tight as a tick, the cheese board went out of the window. I cried at Dr Who - did you? Well, it was nonsense of course. And, I also cried yesterday, first time I'd seen The Lion, The Witch (but I did read when young) Gosh, CS Lewis is so deep.
So, Christmas is totally lovely I think. Also got some uber-smart pjs, and a stick blender ('twill be carrot soup tomorrow!)

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

A rough Christmas for many in the south.. The Express can feel smug for once, but with the law of averages, even that bunch of chumps are likely to get it right once in a while.

a stick blender

....garden shredder....??
