To wonder if I'm ever going to get a bloody Christmas dinner?

[MadHattersWineParty]

At DP's Dad's in East London for Christmas. It's been lovely, loads of family and friends calling in, more booze than the local pub stocks, anything you want.

Christmas dinner been on since about 9. Things have been ready in that time and been taken out to 'go back in at the end'.

But when is the end?!! I'm so hungry that when we ran out of tonic water I legged it to the offy and had a secret packet of crisps on the way back. We had a croissant at 10 and nothing since then.

I'm smashed and bleeding hungry! They've just busted open a keg so I'm not sure dinner is going to happen at all.

There's a baby here who has a rusk. I'm eyeing that up right now. I don't think she'd put up much of a fight, but she has slobbered on it.

Bloody hell, hope your going to be ok tomorrow and not have the shits

Congratulations mad. Was the dinner edible or did it taste good because you were starving

was it worth the wait??

that was nearly 12 hours to do what is basically a roast.

Wtf were they doing

Impressed you didn't pass out!

at the pug in the blanket ^^

Aww cute pug in blanket!

I should imagine that anything would have tasted good - she was half starved and pissed!

Oh MadHatters you have made me laugh. And the poster that asked if they were cooking Godzilla.

My cooking times tend to lean on the erratic side but a whole afternoon and evening for a roast and a turkey that has sat for 6hrs has made me roar.

next yr take a turkey brown and some aunt Bessie roasties, stuffing balls , yoorkies and bags of those micro steam veg.

cook.the pigs in blankets the day before.

nothing should take.more than.40 mins.then..then we can know fir sure they are taking the piss and time.them.fir a laugh

turkey crown

Yay!!

I've been worrying about you OP!

By that point I would have eaten a Bernard Matthews! You're a trooper OP. Hope your stomach holds up ok.

Congratulations!

Mad, how did it taste?!

Well.... Like a roast really... It was nice though. I just have no idea why it took an entire day.

There was no starter or pudding. Just glad to have been fed to be honest. Drank all the gin.

I'm amazed you're still awake!

Had a few intermittent pass outs on the sofa!

You must read this back to yourself tomorrow.

Your typing got worse the drunker you got:)

So you didn't eat all day, got the year's dullest main course and not even some chocolate after? Def don't go next year. Your hangover is going to be something tomorrow.

Aw the pug in the blanket picture made me smile!

Right. I'm well pissed. I just put moisturiser on my toothbrush. Night all, thanks for keeping me sane while i was so bleeding hungry!

I found a hamster in the cupboard under the stairs, it was having a little kip in its cage. I was well tempted to nick its little nutty treat stick thing, it hadn't touched it.

After 12 hours, I bet a real pug in a real blanket owuld have tasted loody lovely!

Sweet dreams.

Just caught up with this and glad you got fed

Tho as I read the last post - after a lot of gin - I thought you had eaten the hamster

hope you're feeling alright today, OP!

I feel sick as a dog to be honest.

Just felt up to flinging ourselves into the District line home. It's 22 stops east to west

declined DP's dad's kind offer of a leftover turkey snack-pack

Mad, I'm relieved you didn't get food poisoning.
