    Not long back from our Christmas lunch.  It wasn't bad for a pub do!  I opted for beef with no gravy and gave DH my yorkie and one of the roast potatoes.  I only ate one potato, some roasted parsnips, some carrots & a few peas; ate all the Brussel sprouts as they actually quite cooked rather than the rock hard bullets that can sometimes be at these sort of places.

    They had some raspberry sorbet so I had that rather than Christmas pudding and custard and have to say it was really nice (and I suspect a lot less syns!).

    Did have syns though as DH said he'd drive even though I'd volunteered so had a couple of glasses of wine so definitely over syns today!

    Thank you all for your comments, collected a monitor from Argos, none available for loan atm.  Not used it yet, bid of an animal crisis dog trying to extricate a hedgehog from under a shrub, lots of barking me in slippers and dressing gown, pitch black, trying to catch dog while holding a torch, laughing now, but not good for my BP.

    Back tomorrow, it may be calmer then.
