Bit of turkey
Shitloads of sprouts and roasted parsnips
Drizzle of gravy if my gravy-adoring sister hasn't sloshed it all over her dinner (I don't begrudge her, I know she adores it)
Large portion of stuffing, gotta be Paxo Sage and Onion

Vegetable gravy

Norfolk Black Turkey roll (because last year the bloody turkey couldn't fit in the oven! No idea how to cook it though)
Roast potatoes
Pigs
Stuffing
Cranberry Sauce
Carrots
Sprouts
Red cabbage (really wanted savoy but there wasn't any)
Home made gravy (with bisto for those philistines who like more gravy than I can physically make and don't appreciate the difference anyway)

Xmas pudding (made my me)
Or Yule log

Would love to do roast parsnips but no room in the oven.

All M&S except for the turkey that comes from the farm Delia recommends www.peeles-blackturkeys.co.uk

For tea it's -

leftovers
Gammon
Cheeses
Quiche
Salad
Christmas cake
