Not massive cheese fans so that's out the question.

I'll probably do a gammon and slices of bread and butter for people to help themselves.

Pork pie from our local butchers. Homemade sausage rolls.

What else???

There will be 6 of us.

Thanks Xmas Smile

Gammon, sausage rolls and pork pie! You must really love pigs (or hate them!)

Chicken legs
Potato salad or jacket spuds
Game pie instead of pork

Any vegetarians? Roast veg, hummus. Quiche, veggie sausage rolls
