making the stock and the basting sauce

it's a hudson & halls recipe b's family have used as far as we can remember

oh my! 

it smells sooooo good...

time to scoff all the yummy foodibles, turkey with jersey bennie spuds, broad beans and tiny peas flooded with gravy...

followed by a famous cowell's pavlova all the way from dunedin with cream, strawberries and raspberries

phew... with full bellies all one could really do was nap, thinking of all the ones we love...

and dream!

an anything thursday

so we gonna tell them all?

i have to be quite cos they might hear me... here's the thing...

they've been having lazy meals like fush and chips, not that we really mind...

it's SO hot and furry humid, its not that pleasant all we can do is pant

and we've found bags turning up… should we be worried?

and we've seen the chilly bin being cleaned...

we've spent nights alone with only the radio keeping us company... 

while they are out having fun seeing big famous bands... 

they say they have to be festive… guys really the last gig of the gorillas world tour over a night with us? 

even if american hip-hop act de la soul were playing...

even with paul simonon and mick jones of the clash playing...

apparently they just had to see damon albarn, the ringleader, chief wrangler, the musical brain behind the gorillaz's escape to plastic beach tour

so what if bobby womack was playing too

and who even knows bootie brown...

apparently the lebanese national orchestra for oriental arabic music were there with bashy and kano... huh?

seems even the six-piece hip-hop brass band the hypnotic brass ensemble were there... guys was there anyone not play'n at this gig?

spose if it made them smile, moll and i can grin and bear it... 

oi where are you two off tonight then?... what work do? oh sheesh we so feel like orphans... this better mean we get a stonking stash of pressies and foodibles for all of our troubles... 

mollie and i have been listening to soooooo much radio we thinks we might have to call this our fav christmas tune for 2010, its called 'anthem for an orphan' (how furry appropriate) by hold dear... enjoy! - click here to listen

next week blue's coloured thursday is gonna be red and green, now that's what we call festive... hey b, what colour's a turkey?
