I’ve always spoken with a posh accent. I told my wife I’d been following Rate My Plate all day and a winner would be announced soon. She changed into this pleated skirt.
Folks I had saved reading this thread for my Christmas nights entertainment and I can honestly say it was worth it !! The comments made in good fun have at times brought tears to my eyes. Honestly thank you to all of those that contributed to this thread
That looks fantastic. If the pigs in blankets had defrosted it would be 10/10 for me. Maybe red cabbage and cauliflower cheese to top it off but a great effort.
Story behind mine: gf's in Ireland and my parents are both sick with RSV, so family Xmas was cancelled and I've had to perform a solo effort. Grey mullet with a West African style stuffing and a bacon wrap, with sprouts fried in butter and spiced cassava roasties. Given I've not had to do this much before, I hope it passes muster! Now to tuck in...
Suddenly it all makes sense - that’s a Christmas dinner that sums up why you prioritise ball playing abilities in centre backs over actual defending.
I thought for a minute then that poor old @dicktracey had been banished to the garden to eat his evening Ham and cheese board alone by angry family members after his disappointing lunch fayre effort!

Do any of you roast your veg??? So many plates of boiled veg
I only meant to par boil the spuds and parsnips first, but forgot they were on, so I sauteed them later. That didn't really work, but they tasted fine. That's' my excuse, if we're allowed any.
First time I've followed this thread. Didn't realise what I've been missing. Burst out laughing every time I say JAShea99's plate of meat pasta and gravy. Parents busy watching Call The Midwife probably thinking I've gone a bit bonkers.
Didn't photogaraph my plate, from a carvery in Gloucester, masses of food, much of it almost inedible. Must eat somewhere better next year; not sure if KFC opens.
But the wine and port after returning to the house has made the disappointment of the meal a distant memory....well until I opened this thread!

Yorkshires were requested by the dinner guests.
Bottom shot is pre-gravy.
