We are having a traditional meal, Turkey, Ham, wine, and a few forbidden delights, like candy and cakes.

Heading over to our neighbours house for dinner, me and the wife bring our own tofurkey and gravey as we are both vegaterians. Lot's of strange questions last year like:

Are all English people vegaterians? (Ans: I'm Welsh)
Ohh so only Welsh people are vegetarian? (Ans: That's right.)
Where is Wales? (West of England and east of Ireland seperated by the Irish sea.)
SO is it in England or Ireland then? (Ans: Neither)
That's weird (from a 43 year old father of 2!)
So did you make your wife become a vegaterian before you would marry her? (Ans: No she was a vegaterian when I met her, I changed to being a vegaterian after we got married)
I don't think that's right making Americans change their religion to marry someone from another country. (Rebuff: Neither of us is religious were both athiest)
But the English came over here to be religious, that's why we have Thanksgiving.

I could go on, but I have to defrost the tofurkey.

Happy Thanksgiving one and all!

I thought it was thanksgiving dinner for petes sake, not the last meal of an inmate in a japanese WW2 concentration camp....

Just gimme the meat and potatoes if there no Yorkshires and you can keep the rest. I'm not eating muck just because it might offend if I don't.
