My "local" pizza joint is called Amigos. It has a Mexican decor. They make pizza. I remember having the "Persian" pizza, which wasn't very good. The guys who work there look South Asian, maybe Indian or Pakistani.

I'm confused.

My sister saw me looking at your posts and said, "Why are you looking at food pictures?!?" Hihi...We're on a diet, of course. Anyways, I showed her your picture and she said, "She looks familiar. Is she the one from England with pink hair?" Hehehe....I think I've talked about you the most and showed her pix of you that she knows who you are. It's a compliment. She usually don't care and pay attention to my ebuddies.

Our Christmas tree.

My Christmas wrapping this year. The Financial Times is (surprise!) a financial paper, that prints share prices. This - as well as the distinctive soft pink colouring - makes it ideal as wrapping because of all of the small even print.

Everyone I used it for seemed to get a kick out of it.
In cross thread fertilisation, Dana and Limey got the cheap santa paper I used for Tiger and Tennant. Why? I can't honestly remember.

We opened our presents at about 10.30, then headed down the Dairy Maid at about 12.15.
We weren't due to eat until 13.00, but it obviously made it easier for them to seat people and offer them food as they could, rather than have a massive influx at 13.00. So we got our starters about 12.35.

Dad was really quite cross at anyone who arrived after 13.00.
"Oh, here's another latecomer!" he'd say, with no appreciation that he could be heard! Then again, he said it so jovially I doubt they would have understood his point.

Silly old sod, like it mattered to us.
But it shows were I get my obsessive timekeeping from. I'd always thought it was from Mum. Then again, being married to her for this long would be anough to make anyone take on her values.

As you will see in a later photo, all the tables were reserved and everything paid for in advance.
It was a lovely relaxed meal (again!)

Mum and I had pate to start, Dad had Torpedo Prawns.

We saw Tiger's Grandmother there.
It was nice because she mentioned that Tiger's Mum had received my text in the morning. Of course I knew that, because Tiger Mum replied, but it was sweet to hear that she'd mentioned it to other people

Mum on her starter (she'd throttle me if she saw this, as she is looking down and would hate her chins)

Mum & Dad.

Mum and Dad had traditional Roast Turkey.
I had ordered T-Bone steak and was almost envious.

Then mine turned up and if anything it had even more food on the plate.
Steak with Yorkshire Puddings?
Odd. But no complaint from me.

Except, Jeez...
So much FOOD!

Oddly, we got a complimentary bowl of Pigs In Blankets.
We call them sausages wrapped in bacon, but hey - foodie terms are good for pub quizzes (Pigs in Blankets, Devils on Horsesback, Angels on Horseback etc)

No idea where they came from or why.
It gave us a couple of silly jokes and some banter though.
Note - I already have a full complement on my plate already, as did Mum & Dad. In fact I left half of one as it was, despite them being my second favourite part of Christmas dinner.

And a picture of all three of us.
Taken by a busy waiter who stepped back into the next County to take it I think.
I've had to crop severaly as you can see my legs under the table in the original. I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Yes I am more florid than my parents, but this is due to general internal temperature as opposed to alcohol consumed. I was lagging behind at this stage, but off the charts when it came to feeling hot.

Dana and Limey can assent to me not being on the normal scale of human heating.

Oh and Dad brought a Father Christmas hat to wear, but didn't put it on because no-one else had it on.
I didn't know this until afterwards, otherwise I would have made him wear it. This is not how we roll! Mum & I had our Christmas cracker hats on the whole time. Although bizarrely not in the photos. But we did, honest.

Dessert.
Mum had Christmas pudding with normal custard, Dad with brandy custard.
I had to go and have the chocolate brownie. It easily dwarfed their reasonably sized pudding slices. And to think I'd avoided them because it's such a rich dessert!

I did not finish it.

Peas be with you always at Christmas.

And finally, a photo of me trying to show off the back of my dress.
I had it covered up with a shrug in the pub, as I have flabby arms.
But it was designed to have a lovely drop back.

You can also see the sparkles in my hair

And that horrendous bruise on my arm?
It's not. It's just a shadow for once.

Merry Christmas one and all.
