Well I often have my brother and family for dinner after my neighbours leave on Christmas day... they always pop over for fizz and nibbles at lunch, then my family turn up at 3...
I didnt ask my brother this year - i have been a bit shattered and felt I needed ti pur my feet up instead of rushing around cooking a huge dinner.
I bought a small chicken as was not going to pay thise inflated prices for a turkey....neighbours came at 11.30.... they left at 6pm, thankfully son no2 cooked the chicken with a huge pan of roasted veg and stuffing I had a lovely day even if I was a little hungover yesterday.
Yesterday I did rib of beef, dauphinois potatoes and veg ( sons request) no left overs.... thats what happens when you have kids!! I didnt even make a Christmas pudding this year.... but thoroughly enjoyed what we had!
Sardines for breakfast this morning
