Merry christmas, it's 5.15 the oven is on.
time to get the stuffing done.

Anyone else up.
I'm so excited.

**MeMock** · 25-12-2006, 05:48 AM

So excited because it is Jesus's birthday? You continue to surprise me CMN!

It's almost 12 noon here and we have just got back from church. On the way home we went via a suburb called Bethlehem to get a family snap (including the dog) in front of the towns sign.

**ChiangMai noon** · 25-12-2006, 05:52 AM

no, no Memock.
whoever this Jesus chap is, I wish him a happy birthday.
I'm excited because I've got 15 people coming in a few hours and I plan to imbibe a lot of alcohol.
Also i have 3 gifts under the tree with my name on them.

**humphrey** · 25-12-2006, 06:05 AM

Merry xmas all.

Merry Christmas to you CMN, I wished happy birthday to Jesus for you already

All the best with the roast - please don't drink like you did in your last thread

My Mum and wife are in the kitchen cooking up a storm, Dads listening to music laying with his feet up on his chesterfield and I'm playing DJ as I worked out how to plug my itunes into the house stereo system.

Baby ariya is fast asleep.

Happy Jesus's birthday to all at teak door.

We're having lamb, got 4 falangs coming which is no mean feat when you consider none of them live closer than 60 k to me

Have'nt put the meat in yet usually have a late lunch christmass.

Anyway happy christmas everyone

**ChiangMai noon** · 25-12-2006, 07:44 AM

I think we have overdone it a bit.
My mate is bringing a 40 kilo pig to spit roast later this morning.
also got some stuffed pork aswell as the turkey.

14 people coming though, I hope.

**klongmaster** · 25-12-2006, 08:15 AM

Sorry I chickened out, best regards to anyone I might know.
I'll keep the Christmas spirit alive in our village, since noone else is doing so. Caught 3 chickens and was gonna prepare them with a nice stuffing, but my gf has taken over, insisting noone would eat any weird farang food.

So they'll make "Gai Pip", chicken baked in a metal dustbin.
Well, I'll have something to report in the cap's kitchen.

where did you catch the chickens?
have you been poaching?

**stroller** · 25-12-2006, 09:47 AM

We got more than a dozen of our own, an experienced neighbour helped catch the birds - it would have made an entertaining You-tube vid, me trying to corner the chickens on me own - they're not daft.

Poaching isn't the thing to do in a small community like this, it backfires very badly. It's better to officialy "borrow" stuff and hope they'll forget about it in due course.

For New Year I'll sacrifice one of the ducks, not inviting anyone, so I'll be allowed to cook it myself.

**Propagator** · 25-12-2006, 03:42 PM

Merry Christmas to you all from a coldish and overcast Runcorn

**ChiangMai noon** · 25-12-2006, 04:05 PM

still half a turkey and half a pig left.
will upload pictures when I'm sober.
probably Februaryish.

**slimboyfat** · 25-12-2006, 07:33 PM

we had pork ribs, roast beef, smoked ham.

i bought some smoked salmon, camembert, stilton and some proper bread and made a caesar salad too.

it was a fine spread. and all my kids could do was complain that i hadn't cooked enough noodles and can they have some Quality Street now.

oh well i enjoyed it anyway. i am looking forward to my cigar later.
