Last night we had a penne and veg mess-up with bits of wild boar sausage. Very nice it was, too, although the sausage was pretty spicy. I am farting like a bastard today.

My nan used to serve a 4pm (prompt) teatime:
  • Table with jigsaw puzzle in progress
  • Table cloth over jigsaw puzzle
  • Pot of tea
  • Choice of:-
  • Sandwiches
  • Savoury pie (e.g. ham and egg)
  • Pork pie
  • Rhubarb pie with porcelain penguin
  • Cake
  • Hard boiled eggs
  • All the stuff I forget, but you get the idea

aw, this is lovely

PC English Style (of course they won't really be ;)) Bangers and mash with lots of butter, fried onions, peas and apple sauce.

One of my fav dinners!

The other poster whose Nan used to do the high tea thing, I love that periodically too. I'm doing a high tea for my daughters (Tweens) as a valentines supper.

That high tea sounds lovely! Yeah I really like that but don't do it. It'd be really nice to do once in a while, and I get hungry at 4pm so it's good timing.

Enjoy your dinner, sounds delicious, I've really come to like bagels and salmon over the past year.... Yum:thumbup:
