Seeing as we're approching Christmas (and Thanksgiving for US folk) how about a bit of praise for the Turkey (Christmas) dinner?

Mashed & Roast Spuds, Turkey, Stuffing (chestnut, Sage & Onion), Sausage meat, Pigs in Blankets, loads of Veg, Bread Sauce, Cranberry Sauce and a nice gravy. Followed by Christmas Pud with lashings of Rum/Brandy Sauce washed down with copious amounts of Booze!

Lovely!!!

You have to have all the extras with Turkey because it's such a bland meat !!

Yup! It's the extras that make the meal!

Reindeer burgers!!!!!

how will Santa fly?

Good grief, that's a hearty house full o' food! ! ! ! ! I'm starving, now, and feeling dead on my feet.

Ostrich burgers are my new fav... yum

Went to the pub for tea last night and had Bangers & Mash, followed by Spotted Dick & custard.


Lovely!

This'll make you feel better. I drove so I had to avoid the booze...had a Kaliber...

Oh, that's cruel !!!

fixed that for you.

I don't mind non-alcholic drinks (Becks, Bitburger Drive, Cobra, Stella are all decent) but Kaliber is shite.

Spotted Dick - Spotted dick is a steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit (usually currants) commonly served with custard.

1. I've been to the US on several occasions.
2. There's far more US TV shown here in the UK then there is UK TV shown in the US. We learn quicks from the TV!
