I have a BIG dinner too :D at 3pm, but no dessert after the dinner.

Around about 5pm I have Christmas pud though. :D:cheer2: With custard.:cheer2:

I usually eat light before the big dinner. A very light breakfast, orange juice, some fruit, and at midday a sandwich. :)

Sounds gross don't think the flavours will go together but if you want Christmas dinner to be ruined go with it :hee:

Well I used to work in a pub and they had a sandwich on the menu prawn, bacon and mayonnaise and I thought it sounded like the worst thing ever but I tasted it and it was so good

[BigSister]

No we just have a big dinner and some desserts then sometimes at night we have crisps and chocolate and peanuts

[Denver]

Never heard of that in Scotland. Most people I know have soup.

[Glenn.]

Soup and Prawn Cocktail are traditional starters everywhere aren't they?

[Firewire]

Genuinely have never heard of prawn cocktail being a starter @Josy have you

[Will.]

All the posho's have soup. Well it seems that why when we go to pre X mas lunches at friends houses.

[Glenn.]

Yes they are, we often have soup as a starter on an average weekday, soup is nice, don't know why anyone is judging it.

[Cherie]

[Josy]
