Neil came back from Aberdeen today and with his chef expertise, helped us cook our house Christmas meal of roast chicken, roast potatos with lemon, roasted honey parsnips and carrots, peas and pigs in blankets. We had a starter of butternut squash soup - it was yummy! Now we've got mini port mince pies with brandy cream, followed by a cheese board with a Welsh Brie, Black Bomber cheddar and Welsh Blue with Jacobs crackers. Today has been a very Christmasy day. We started with making a Christmas playlist with such hits as that Darkness one, an obscure Britney number and of course Slade! We then decorated our living room and had our first advent calendar chocolate from Laura's dad - Marks and Spencer's, you know. Brooke's just scared us talking about 'Antichrist' so now we're hoping that the cheese doesn't give us horrific nightmares!
