Who are you making tea for at this time of day, surely [?] the bank are at the gin & it parties.
Stick a funny hat on your bonce, a whistle thingy in your norf & sarf, have another mince pie and relax in the caff.
No frenzy here, all civilised and ready to eat, as Socs so nicely puts it, our wilderbeest.
Do you know I could have swore I heard that you've mad cow in the UK but none over here, tee hee except I also heard Mrs Thatcher [I don't recognise all that Sir, Lord, Lady crap] is Christmassing over here.
Have a great Yuletide everyone....

I don't think we have any mad cow over here any more, the US have just said they have some though.
I have decided, in the absence of the canine proprietor, to keep the cafe open over Christmas. I thought it would be convivial for people to pop in for a quiet drink away from the frenzy of families and friends. A little haven of peace and tranquility is just what the doctor ordered at such times.

Thats it, markets closed so I thought it was time to relax. That was until my daughter arrived with my Grandson and informed me I am baby sitting tonight.
So the beer goes back into the fridge until later and I have to practice my 'cooey Ccoos'.
Wishing you all a fun Xmas.

After years of complaining that the 12lb or so turkey that is the size that I buy for Christmas is far too big 'She Who Thinks She Should be Obeyed' bought the turkey this year - an 18lb monster that looks more like an ostrich than a turkey!
I'll not need to go out and shoot rabbit for Boxing Day pie this year! In fact there will be enough turkey pie for everyone at the Tea Room.

Merry Xmas to all.
Just wrapped up a new ironning board for the wife, the kids think its a surf board.
I see the Royal pets are having Corgi for their xmas dinner.
Tastes just like Chicken you know.

That's a laugh. Her-indoors did the same. Complained that a 10lb turkey was too big so I said, you choose it. She bought a 5kg one.

Good Morning and a very merry Christmas to all of the Cafe clientele.
Full English breakfast is now available with Bucks Fizz as an appetiser. Had quite a job getting hold of enough kidneys to fry, but they go so well with a Christmas Day breakfast. Bacon, eggs, saute spuds, tomato, chipolata sausages, mushrooms, fried bread etc etc. Of couse if you don't want the FEB, I can always knock up some porridge, kedgeree or an omelette.
I will be carving the turkey prompt at 2:00 pm so please be seated at the tables five minutes earlier for pulling crackers and serving starters.
