Wish i had a Sunday roast today, my belly is rumbling like mad! Off to munch on as much as i can...on a mission to put ON weight...when losing it seems to be the norm.

It's Roast dinner every sunday at the casa zagubov. Dog gets leftover chicken and sausage throughout week.

Takes three dishwasher runs to get all the stuff clean and can't help feeling I'm doing something wrong.

YBM, you're north of the border, so any advice for GDB's DS moving to study in Edinburgh? Sorry that sounds like a batch of codes!

Pies.... lots of pies..... and, of course, no pie is complete without a mound of chips

and a lot of lager. lager has immense weight gaining properties.

We always have 'proper' roast dinners on Sundays - except today when it was a variant, because we had a roast dinner last night.

Boring and comforting.

Once in own place will more than likely have a roast every couple of Sundays...they cant be cheap! Love yorkshire puddings though. Must eat about 20 every xmas day!!

Where about in Edinburgh is he going to be staying? Edinburgh is so dear for property but the locals are the nicest you will find in any city in the UK. Iv been to most and anyone can fit in with Edinburgh lot plus the accent there is alot more "english" than the rest of Scotland!! What would you like to know?

A basic roast dinner can be cheap .... you can pick up, say, chickens at £3-4 each (less if you are lucky enough to live by a supermarket that has good knock down prices at a time you're passing) .... then what else is there: Yorkshire puddings for about 50p for almost unlimited quantities; roasties - a £1 bag would give you enough roassties to eat all week.... then there's gravy, pennies. Then that stuff they call 'vegetables' .... which can be as cheap as you like, if you go for seasonal ones... or, even tinned carrots/peas can be bought for under 30p for the two. Stuffing: make your own, it's only breadcrumbs, a few herbs, bit of water ....

Certainly, by the time you've cooked all that lot you can probably easily feed 4 people and have leftovers for well under £5.
