Me tatties are on now, turkey (thank the lord for iceland cook from frozen!) has been in since 4pm and should be ready at 7.30pm!

Tatties will go in the oven around half 6 or so and that should make for some nice stuff!

Then need to work out how the rest of it goes together! lol

Christmas day is snacks & nibbles for us - kids come around on afternoon and it is 'buffet' style
Boxing day we all go to hotel in village for full Christmas Monty
