Mums over 50......

Remember, today is the last boiling day for sprouts for Christmas.

What the?

Ah, the English - so eccentric...

I think you may need to be British to get the joke.

I think you need to be British to use the word Mum...

For the life of me I cannot connect Brussels and Christmas with my Mum...even though I come from great stock.

Hampstead, you need to spell out this one or else it is going to be collated with spinach, swedes and turnips by category.

Not necessarily British, just an exponent of the Queens English

I can just smell it.

Christmas cheers to all!
