    He basically said, leave it to rest for the same amount of time you cook it for.

    Just had the in-laws over for a pre Christmas eve, pre pre Christmas day meal.

    We're out with them tomorrow for a (traditional) pub lunch and they're at ours Christmas for dinner so this is no way at all overload, honestly.

    There are certain rules that are observed at such occasions.

    Firstly, they add salt without tasting the food, regardless.

    Secondly, they say 'this is lovely' the millisecond the first mouthfull touches their mouth. Then again after ten seconds. Then half way through, then just before the end.

    Then at the end.

    The above rules only apply if the Mrs has cooked. The 'this is lovely' rule does not apply when the son in-law cooks.

    The salt rule does though.


    I was drinking port straight from the bottle when loading the dishwasher at the end.

    Oh mate.

    In laws around the corner is bad. I’d really struggle with that tbh, especially the assumption bit. Throw a sickie on boxing day night, and stay at home with a nice bottle of single malt :)

    Buy yourself a little house to renovate. Pull all the ceilings down and take the floorboards up. No female will ever visit because of the mess, bloody heaven!!!!!

    My Mrs (nm) doesn't drive so I'd be quite if her family lived around the corner. Plus, I'm not exactly subtle so if i come home and they were here, I'd make it clear i want them to ****off <laugh>
