And whats wrong with "Xmas" as an alternative word to Christmas?

X is an old abbreviation for the word Christ which is where the word Xmas comes from.

If you want to keep Christ out of your festive holidays then start celebrating Festivus

Asparagus in December?????? Bit out of season?

Yeah but I like it

Starter of Parma ham wrapped asparagus (roasted)

Main Turkey Crown, Roast Beef & Gammon Joint with all the necessary trimmings

Dessert choice of Christmas cake, mince pies, Christmas pudding or cheese board with Port

Served with a Canadian Ice Wine fortified Champagne (ok so it’s not champagne as it’s from Canada but I can’t remember what they call it)

Any space at your table ?

No. This is a very popular event and spaces are limited due to us only having eight dining room chairs.

If you bring your own stool you can watch us but you won't be getting any.
