How exciting. 20 days to go. :j :j :j :j

I did intend to wrap some presents today but never got round to it. Next weekend Im away for a shopping weekend with the girls and the weekend after I am taking my niece to see JLS which was her birthday present. I decided to make a weekend of it due to the bad weather and go down on the train and take her shopping on the saturday and come back at some point on the sunday. Im working all the way till Christmas Eve so will have to find some time between now and then to start wrapping.

Cant believe how quiet this thread has been recently. Thought it would be really busy now where so close. :rotfl:

Can anyone help - I am looking for a little bit of guidance for Christmas day meal.

I want to get my veg and stuff ready before the day so I am not running around like a headless chicken and in the kitchen all day.

I have decided not to have a starter so thats one less thing to worry about but this year I am cooking for my MIL (as well as hubby and kids) and I have never had company for dinner before.

I am cheating a bit with the turkey as we are having one of those frozen turkey breasts from iceland instead of a full bird, but will also be doing nigella's gammon in coke. That will be done Christmas Eve.

So basically I am asking what can I prep before and freeze etc.

Thanks
