You have your xmas dinner on xmas eve? What do you eat on xmas day?{Signature removed by Forum Team}0 -
A guest for Christmas has requested skimmed milk so popped into Waitrose.
The shops are closed for ONE freaking day ands its like OMFG the apocalypse has started. Seriously what the hell is wrong with people? Pushing and shoving, arguments, complaining you name it. It looks like a lot of non-typical customers have descended expecting reduced to 50 pence organic turkeys etc etc.
Deep breath.
Will be serving roasted sockeye salmon with hollandaise and roasted vegetables for supper.0
