    Crazy thing is it's not even a traditional meat for our Christmas. Turkeys are native to the americas and were only available from the 1700s. before that we ate Brawn! <yikes> Wonder how many people have Brawn this Christmas, not many I bet, sounds ****ing rank.

    Shopping with the missus a couple of weeks ago, we were looking at some of the rustic Santa ornaments, she said that she prefers the traditional Santa in red and white and wouldn't believe me when I told her it was the Coca Cola Santa.

    I'll show her your post Smug, she might believe me now.
