I’d say we’d the earliest dinner in the country the oul lad was up and he’s an uncompromising middle of the day man, the dessert was finished by 2:45 and the table was cleared and the dishwasher locked and loaded by 3pm

First year cooking at home and it went off without a hitch. I lubed the turkey up last night in a good dose of butter, garlic and herbs… Ham got the honey and mustard treatment. Potatoes in goose fat and cooked the Brussels with bacon and goose fat from the potato goose fat … @TreatyStones , the bread sauce was also too notch

Fair play, you’ve the hard yards in tbf. I’m in ribbons here after herselfs offering, her best yet says she. I wouldn’t disagree.
All that work to fire 10 things into a big hape on the plate and smother them in gravy and bread sauce.

When they don’t stretch for the salt or butter you’re well and truly sorted.
