Prawn cocktail?
How common.
No starter (they're for girls and poofs)
At least 3 meats.
Mountain of roasties.
Stuffing.
Spuds.
Yorkshire pudding.
Veg to keep you regular.
Loads of proper gravy.
Followed by Christmas pudding with custard.
Then an hour or two to let your food go down.
Then half a tin of quality street washed down with an avalanche of alcohol (must include baileys, babycham, Buck's Fizz and whisky)
Then an evening of shite telly, more food, more booze and an argument or two.
All topped off with a massive shit - preferably before bed.
Merry Christmas all.
No Brussels for me thanks.
You'll be too busy doing the dishes to worry about that.No Brussels for me thanks.
I used to be like you.No Brussels for me thanks.
Then I found that they're quite tasty if cooked properly.
Up to a day before, Par-boil them, androast a few chestnuts.
Just before serving, stir-fry in a little butter with chopped smoked bacon, a pinch of herbs, chopped cranberries and chopped chestnuts.
Lovely!
7am; Wake up and straight on the beer and sniff.
3pm; pull myself together to put on the Queens speech.
3:02pm;piss all over the tele, I can't stand the leeching hag.
4pm; after a rumpus, my missus takes me home from her mothers.
Duo of farm slaughtered free range meats, delicately balanced atop a sumptuous raft of locally harvested, hand cooked, crushed potatoes, snuggled alongside hand picked Kent garden peas, hand foraged chanteney carrots, finest hand reared Brussels sprouts, drizzled with essense of bouef jus.
Half a bottle of blue nun.
They will be going in my mums dishwasher this year.
I like them really, it was a brexit joke
I love sprouts. Plain or fancy.
Roast parsnips. Well roasted. A must have.
Not fussed on Christmas Pudding straight after the main event - who has room for it?!
However, just in case not enough calories were consumed, the unfinished Christmas Pudding sliced and saute'd in butter is delicious on Boxing Day morning. Oh good grief ..
Apparently, on average we consume 8000+ calories on Christmas Day.
Wrong thread. You need the" More signs that you may be a little common" thread.
For a kick off it's Christmas not Xmas.
Usually start off with a cup of tea and a couple of slices of toast.
Lunch comprises lobster, followed by Turkey with all the trimmings washed down with a couple of bottles of lansons with cheesecake and ice cream.
Couple of bottles of beer and a snooze then a light tea of salmon sandwiches and sausage rolls etc Dr Who, Downton Abbey (dunno what we're going to watch this year) glass of malt then bed.
Shameful that so many of you don't go to the pub on Christmas morning for a free pint from the landlord, a Christmas tradition that goes back centuries.
You've already been told that drinking is a mugs game.
I second that 1948
Amazing sprout recipe:
Par-boil, stir fry in olive oil with shredded carrot, onion and pancetta until brown. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar before taking them out of the pan.
I bet you live in Bristol, and go to free Hilton hotel rooms too, ya posh twat...
I've petitioned the parents this year to do away with the usual xmas dinner (avec sprouts, peas, carrots, parsnips, potatoes etc), in favour of simply double turkey, and triple kilties (aka 'pigs in blankets' for all you Americans).
A 'meat feast' xmas dinner, if you will.
That's what I'm having.
So...just a plate of Brussels sprouts...eurgh!!
What is it about sprouts?
Why are they "traditional"?
Why only once a year?
I can't stand the fecking things but herself insists on sticking a few on my plate.
Food of satan imho
