Well, I did actually get her a tin of red salmon as a treat! Pathetic, eh?AnatolyKasparov wrote:What did Constance have for Xmas lunch?
Edited to add - I know from past experience that she won't touch tuna or pink salmon.

"Training" is cheating and the hard part,just enter the bloody things,by the time you've realised what you are doing you are half way through and the need for nicotine will spur you until the end.

A good Christmas day here chez fromYorkshire. Contrary to the forecast, we were blessed with lovely sunshine and some stunning cloud formations hanging around the tops.
My Milanese Tacchino di Natale' turkey recipe hit the spot. The low point of the day was successfully miming Diane Abbott to my brother-in-law, nephews and son, but despite getting 'Shadow Home Secretary', they couldn't remember her name

TBF this is a multi-round game, so they knew she was a possible answer. I won't try to describe the mime. Probably not the most respectful image of Ms Abbott!
