    Sounds good Barry. I managed to make a decent pate, but my plans for 'Guinea fowl filo pastry and honey vinaigrette' fell apart as I realised I'd left it too late as there was fair bit of prep involved, including deboning the Guinea fowl. So I just lopped off a breast. gonna pan fry it with marsala and shooms, cream. Try making the elaborate original dish for boxing day!

    Thanks Grant & Barry. When I went to cook today I found the honey glazed parsnips I’d left in the oven and forgotten to serve!

    The wine was really really good - I think Tesco, normally £20 but this week was a “Clubcard Price” at £15 - I’ll be going back for more, that’s for sure.

    Tonight was leftovers and random things from the fridge - Southern fried chicken, the obligatory bubble & squeak and a stuffed mushroom. Was “interesting” I guess, and avoided food going in the bin which is one of my pet hates.



    Wine is Prosecco, half an open bottle left in the fridge by one of our guests so rude to let that go to waste, too!

    No xmas dinner pic but here's the assembly for the meal, I'm right at the back on the 'kid's table' where the conversation is just at my level.



    & catching up with goings on on AOS (didn't take long ) drinking a xmas cake stout from Brewdog.

    Doesn't look like there is much of interest for you there.



    Mind you on the few occasions when I have had to log in to AoS using a smart phone, the text is so small that I get tired of having to enlarge the image to read it.
