    Is it too soon to start the Yorkshire puddings with Christmas dinner controversy?

    I believe it’s traditional to cook the pigs in blankets. 😉

    FFS, part BBQ, part Christmas. And is the plate designed to look dirty?   ;)

    Some credit however for the stolen napkins.

    I see you have gone traditional with roast beef. Impressive.

    No she didn't.

  • Definitely in need of some carrots for colour balance if nothing else..

    Think Christmas Dinner is like art, it is open to interpretation and to individual taste. For me everything is optional if it is what you want. I personally want meat, pigs in blankets, sprouts, carrots, stuffing and roast potatoes and parsnips. Lashings of gravy is an obvious accompaniment, think Yorkshire Puds are acceptable with anything even a salad.

    Reminds me of the classic line from Morecambe and Wise...
