No mush or vile taste and so much easier on the washing up too You can even buy a bag of prepared sprouts in M&S that you just stick a hole in the bag and bung 'em in the microwave and job done tesco do those too. pierce the bag, 3-4 mins, perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy54 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I wonder if this will beat the number of pages in the Full English Breakfast thread? My wife suggested why don't we have a Chinese takeaway this year instead of a Christmas dinner?...my 30 year daughter was not amused 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably end up taking a few fingers off. Man walks into a butchers and says what's happened to your apprentice butcher? Had to sack him for putting his dick in the bacon slicer, replied the butcher. Oh what have you done with the bacon slicer? Asks the man I've sacked her too! copyright - some northern comedian. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Xela Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 I still remember the time I went to my folks for Christmas dinner and just before serving, my dear Mom confessed that she had forgot the pigs in blankets. Well, I was more shocked than Angie Watts was, when Dirty Den served her the divorce papers. I managed to contain my anger well 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AVFC_Hitz Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 Önce when I was around 6/7 my dad joked he'd forgotten to buy sausages for Christmas dinner. I ran upstairs and phoned my nan who arrived about an hour later with a pack of sausages. There seemed to be a lot of waving of sausages as my nan was berating her adult son while he was trying to explain that it was all a joke. I ran upstairs and hid, playing with my new skalextric set. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will try with sprouts when the missus is out, I wouldn’t want to interfere with her work. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted December 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2022 Controversial but I really don't like pigs in blankets. Give me more sprouts instead to fill the plate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I've always considered people who choose a turkey crown as totally decadent, and seeing that Mooney has one confirmed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YLN Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I don't know what pigs in blankets are. I thought they were an American thing. And I thought they were just what they called sausage rolls, but with less pastry. What are all you people talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I've ever had one. I would eat them, but cocktail sausages are nice on their own. I wouldn't say they need bacon wrapped around them. If god had intended etc...
