Try a bacon butty with marmalade , delicious.

Moving into summer I've been putting Marmalade in fried onions for the barbecue for years so i can well see it working with a bacon butty

Just for the fun side side of things tasteful , instead of Cranberry sauce with your Turkey as anyone ever tried Winberrey or chuckleberry sauce , both red and very nice , I think they're possibly the same berry that grow wild in places like the moorlands of Shrewsbury , ie The Stiperstones , very nice .

Only really familiar with The Stiperstones from Malcolm Saville's  "Lone Pine" series along with the Long Mynd.

I do recall an outcrop called "Cranberry Rock" though and a quick 'google' has lead me to a whole new bunch of berries to investigate , as well as rekindling memories of some great reading , off to find the books again now , thanks for the memory jog ... :thumbsup:

As a family none of us particularly "like" turkey (we don't mind it), but if it weren't for tradition, cranberry and of course bread sauce, we wouldn't even bother with a turkey.

Anybody never had bread sauce/heard of it that "may" give it a go this year? - if so, forget home-made, buy a ready-made luxury one for £2.

PS "Moving into Summer" did you say Twoshoes? You ARE the Optimist!😅

All our Xmas plans have been postponed, not for any bad reasons , so just the 2 of us decided we're not going to bother with a Turkey and all the trimmings , gone for a Rib roast with YPs and a winter roast instead, cheese board & yes Xmas pudding creme brulee 1 big one to share , so no bread sauce for us this year 😭

Nope , but the Rib roast has finally been used up , Rib roast on Xmas day , Cold sandwiches with horseradish last night and the grand finally Chinese beef curry etc and the dogs , "Frankie & Koko ", got all the leftovers plus all the winter roast we couldn't manage , not a morsel wasted , and the Kids are now coming for the New Year instead , you should have seen the look on the faces of the dogs when we told them the good news , lol.
