Dixo, you have an appetite just like mine.  I haven't had to do the Christmas lunch for a while but I help with the cooking. We have the same. Roast Turkey and roast pork.  Leg of ham, all the salads, Roast potatoes and potato bake, cauliflower cheese and platters of king prawns and bowls of chilli mussels.  

Don't even get me started on the desserts.  There is always a crowd.

If there is always a crowd would you notice one more ?

I can make myslef really tiny

The more the merrier Greencat.  Watcha bringing? 😄

OMG! No j*oono, that's Andrew's huge plate and THEN... the man comes back for seconds!!

He's as skinny as a rake too... arghhhh. 

Me.. I eat less than half of that and then stack on the kilos. But who gives a sheet when it's Christmas?

Minus the potato, I'd eat three of those plates full and then desert. Can not eat the spuds and desert, blood sugar would go ballistic

Dixo, that's about the size of my Sunday breakfast.  I'm in training 😄
