Christmas dinner …… do’s and don’ts

[Young_Nudger]

Do’s
Meat - turkey or duck or goose or pork.
With pigs in blankets.

Veg - sprouts, turnip / swede, potatoes mashed and baked, roasted parsnips, apple sauce,

Don’ts
Meat - beef or lamb.

Veg - anything other than items in the above list - especially not sweet corn or peas or cabbage.

Yorkshire pudding - definite no no.
It’s a starter anyway - should be served as big as a dinner plate - but not on Christmas Day.
Those little things yer get at the side of yer plate are not Yorkshire puddings IMO.

Turkey and pooark hard to cook wiart it gooin dry and needing to be swamped in gravy, and then it just tastes of gravy.
I like a whole leg of lamb (heyf price at Tesco), slice or two from the thigh and the shank. Sprigs of rosemary when cooking and mint sauce to enhance flavour.

All meyt is so 20th century Nudge. Be edgy with a vegetarian option.

Parsnips par boiled and roasted with honey.

Weears thi stuffing ?

Al eyt owt that's free at sumdi's house. Eyt all, Sup all, Pay nowt.

Don't turn up at your parents still pyssed and hungover from an all day Christmas eve session .

It happened once as a younger but none the less old enough to know better man .

The disgrace will never be forgiven and it wasn't , " And don't you be turning up like you did the other year either " .

" it's the only day of the year when we sit down together as a family and you can't even respect that "

" your mother is upset I hope your proud "

It doesn't stop there either , the good members of the family looking down their noses and giving you the shame on you treatment .

Don't go there .

Eight what iva tha fancies imo. Supermarkets proper tek the pyss wi price o Turkey at Christmas. Feckin disgrace and summat needs to be done abart it.

During the year we regularly eight Turkey escalopes which is fresh Turkey breast meyt sliced abart aif an inch thick. £4 for 4 escalopes. Breadcrumb em thissen wi a bit o sage and pepper- Beaudiful as Berhard Matthews once said.

How they can justify to charge such extortionate prices for Turkey at chrimbo and keep getting away with it I don't know. Its a bit like supporting Barnsley in recent years, tha can only tek pyss fo so long afooar folk decide on summat else!

14p a bag of sprouts, and carrots….
What the feck is a farmer getting.?
Farms shops don’t sell farm foods. Farmfoods sell more farm grown carrots than Cannon hall sells.

14 feckin pence. Think about it when you eat them tomorrow…


Yes, I paid a decent price.
