Dates have to be in a 'lozenge' box for authenticity, left untouched and unopened until everything else has been eaten... http://brianclegg.blogspot.co.uk/2010/12/anyone-fancy-christmas-date.html


Warnick's Advocaat and Dubonnet are must haves in the drinks dept, best served from a pine clad bar in the corner of the living room...

Sherry & babycham for the grown-ups & definitely advocaat. Ready made snowballs are just not the same.

And a Sindy doll, an annual, a board game & a selection box from Santa every single year!

Great day today, just the 5 of us for dinner, although we did pop to the Ivy House for a festive beer before starting the cooking. Family in Ireland were on skype.


Cooking was a team effort with me and the missus, i do the turkey and roasties and she does the rest.


I have already had two snoozes since dinner.


Dulwich Fox, hope you managed to have a good day.

    • Thanks very much, that's really interesting. I feel better about the shredded paper not being recycled now! And even better that I can get it out of the house and into the green bin! I will save a bit for future composting though  (and homemade seed paper, thanks Peckhamgatecrasher) x
