In a break with convention, we decided to have Beef Wellington instead of the traditional Christmas Dinner. Here it is fresh from the oven.

Can't wait!

Much better than turkey! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif
 
Damn right, Beef's the new Turkey!!!

I just enjoyed my portion at: http://www.villahotel-wreagreen.co.uk/

...All in all was very nice, even though my family can't behave themselves! (I also made a failed attempt at banning the phrase "are you alright?" from the table /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif)

I hope everyone else is having a nice relaxing day, festive wishes to you all!

Rob.

Funny you should mention that. One of my pressies was a new leather belt, quite a bit longer than the old one which I've had for ten years or more.

Feedback much appreciated, Steve. I'll pass your compliments onto the wife, whose masterpiece it was. The oven is a standard domestic size Stoves (gas) about 12 years old, but absolutely the business. The whole thing ****** in just about an hour.
