The dinner was always 'kizzled' with the gravy dried up around the edges as my mam just bunged it in a low oven already plated up. It didn't really matter what it was like after a skinful at the club, it all went down the hatch followed by in afternoon kip before pubs opened again in the evening.
As a kid we’d eat Sunday dinner at 3pm after the pub closed, the rest of the week it depended on what hours my parents worked.
I have to say I went tee-total about 20 years ago so dinner is always eaten freshly made now, with no gravy rim around the edge.
Shops being open on Sunday and it being treated as a normal working day by some, vegetariansism, along with most women work to help to pay the mortgage these days means that the traditional Sunday Lunch/dinner is left to the realms of us dinosaurs who are stuck in the dark ages . (And happy to be so, I may add)
