No - the best part of Christmas is cooking the turkey for 17 hours and then discovering you've left the plasticy thing with the giblets in - inside the bird. Cooking is a great mystery to me and I am envious of these people who can cook anything especially cake. I have a timing problem -if the birds done the veg is not or if the potatoes are roasted the meat is still uncooked - (premature incineration!)essentially if it doesn't go 'ping 'after 20 minutes then Im in trouble- Im a great Marksand SPencer fan as you can probably imagine.
