Xmas Dinner

What we having?

Sister in law (modest handful) and her fella split, in-laws in France, so it's just the five of us at home. If I'm honest, I can't really be arsed; it's an early Sunday dinner, and will have all the fannying around without the extra gifts and booze.

 

Anyway, kids want turkey. They didn't have mash last year, and tbf I didn't miss it; however they insist. The wife usually asks for gammon, and that's my usual contribution to a family meal. I'm looking forward to making gravy, semifredo etc in advance. Go forth good folk of WWays; inspire me with your festive fayre

Do the SuperMosques not knock out free curry and chips on Christmas Day?

I had a guided tour of the one on Fletcher Street after 9/11 - dunno why, they were very nice.

Nice carpets too.

Maybe I thought I'd find RPGS or whatever.

I think it's the other lads do the free food - Sikhs.

But it’s vegetarian.

I think.

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

Bag as much grub as you can, then douse them all with petrol, point your AK-47 and, well…. You know the rest

Seriously, getting worse than Gillette, how many blades are the up to now 🤷

I assume this gastronomic atrocity is being cooked over a flaming mattress out on the front street?

I reckon' Judas nobbed her - the dirty fucker, then stitched up his own son who he never acknowledged.

Until he fondled his bollocks in the garden of Eden to grass him up to the Roman dibble.

I agree the donkey was involved at some point.

Noah, pissed up on Concorde 'wine' peered through the stable door and wanked.

It's all in the black bible aka The Torah.

Aye had ramifications for years after
 

I heard Judas was driving on the night of the last supper so couldn’t drink. Big J though was knocking back bloody Mary’s like there was no tomorrow (HA!) 
 

When it came down to it Big J said yeah let’s split the bill equally, Judas who’d been on the perier had been stitched up like a Jew at Easter. 

Off to Pontius Pilot he went, Pontius was still fuming at the cowboy job Joseph did to his mams vestibule, so they hatched a plan.

Jesus meanwhile stumbled down to the old star and garter, lured into the bogs by Mary Magdalene and enticed to the first ever gloryhole

All in the bible. Shalom

I reckon' Joaquin Jesus and Chewital Peter were bum chums and Mary and Susan were their beards. They went 'fishing' at night on The Caspian Sea or whatever but were really just bumming each other like them shepherds in Hamburger Hill.

I also think James the Lez got involved.

It's all in the holy Quaran.

I'm not knocking Christianity but with theories being he could have been gay, black or a woman why not add another possibility.

Perhaps his/her birthday was in summer, the advantages being. . . .

We could go out in shorts and tee shirts. No big coats on the back of chairs. Less pockets to lose your keys, phone, cash in.

We could sit outside, making pubs bigger and more healthy.

We could walk home in healthier warmer weather.

Christmas dinner could be a nice salad or light snack.

It would give us time to get ready for the next money maker, New Year.

Win win, if you ask me.

I blame the Pagans.

They had a mid winter festival that was hijacked by the Christians to make their idea more acceptable.

Just saying the other day that Christmas should be in mid summer in covid times

It is in summer for everyone below the equator

Because they're god squad they bum their wives instead of vaginal as birth control - Pope John Paul Jones approved this - that why Mercury's nefarious invented disease HIV is so prevalent there.

Nice! 

I've got 18 coming round tomorrow night. Was 6 but my Mrs keeps inviting people 🙄 Wouldn't mind but she's at work all week so no time to make anything. Been cooking all fucking yesterday and today for people I don't even want to come.

That with the door going every 30 mins for things she's ordered and people on the street delivering cards.... just put it through the letter box and fuck off.

Apparently I'm doing the pub quiz tonight.... yippee.

Anyone else got anything planned for them this Christmas?

 

 

 

 

Look quality those.

Just done some mango chutney, now onion marmalade on the go.

Baking tomorrow.

They do em at a farm shop I go to. They have a sage leaf baked inside- bloody fantastic, equally so cold. Bit like a good pork pie.

Yeah 18 and counting. Does seem alot with whats going on but asked them all to take a LF before coming. All have had the jabs so don't see what the problem is. 

Might stand at the door with a digital thermometer. 38° and above... you're not coming in.
