    What will your Christmas Dinner be?

    Who will cook their own?

    Down to the expat bars for a hassle free feed?


    How big will you go? Glazed ham, pumpkin pie, xmas puddings that set the house alight, corned beef?


    I'll probably keep it simple. Roast veg with roast chicken (we're not a fan of turkey) or may be adventurous and do a roast duck instead.

    What are your plans?

    I'd like to make some Italian sausages if I can find them. And maybe a baked ham.

    Traditional Christmas Fayre at the Camel Pub in Rayong. (They get US servicemen bringing turkeys in regularly). Christmas Carols sung by kids from the Camillian Centre. *wub*

    This will be our first Christmas in the West as a Family so, no idea just yet.

    Given that it's Summer, probably prawns and/or fish and a salad, washed down with plenty of beer.

    First time also the boys (almost 3) will have seen a Christmas tree and first time for presents ... looking forward to seeing the smiles on their dials as they unwrap the pressies.

    .

    I know Greg is doing a mega traditional Christmas Lunch, afternoon and evening menu at The Loft with all the trimmings.

    A lovely area for the kids to play and no problems with parking.

    That sounds lovely.

    Where is The Loft, and do they have hotel rooms with a roll-you-into-them service?

    Can make that a total of 13-15?

    The wife and kid can sit in the car if 13 is the total allowed.

    So far only 6 confirmed so no problem. The more the merrier. No prob for Humbert. He's close.

    Actually more a New Year rather than Christmas thing. Some time first week of Jan.

    Probably large, bbq'd prawns, chicken adobo, rice, and whatever fruit the garden is featuring that day.


    Wife just added pancit, lechon, and whatever varieties of shellfish and fish she brings back from next week's trip to Palawan.

    The Norton Jimbob party war is about to heat up.


    Topless waitresses and a Black Label Hamper upon entering might just swing it.

    Turkey, baked ham, lobster, prime rib and pork roast. Like a change for the holiday.

    No worries. No conflict. All will be coordinated by the local UDD chapter.

    I'm reliably informed that we'll be having roast turkey with everything and that there will be a large ham on offer.
    Knowing the lad I've no doubt there'll be a massive Lasagna and the inevitable Yorkshire Puds.

    Yum Yum.
