Sleep in!

An early start and off to collect the turkey, sausage meat and chipolatas.

All collected, coffee and mince pie and off to wish a six year old a happy birthday.

Then the preparations began. A little furniture removal, all posh cutlery and posh plates found and washed, then the table set for 8.

One packet of brussels, one packet of carrots, a tin of peas, sweetcorn, two heads of broccoli, 44 halves of roast potatoes and 24 boiled potatoes, stuffing, 2 packets of parsnips and lots of chipolatas, a great big turkey and 4lb sausage meat all prepared for tomorrow.

All prepared just need dad to be up early to switch the oven on in the morning at 6.

Hope he doesn't sleep in!
