    I saw a programme about it. It was mostly turkey, corn and sweet potatoes.

    In other words, it was shït.

    I don't really understand Thanksgiving, to be honest. I was interrogating an American colleague about it today and it seems they just eat a big meal. There aren't any presents, no Great Escape on telly, just a big dinner and some American football. They don't even seem to get horribly drunk and pass out in front of the telly from what he told me.

    It sounds really rubbish.

    If I'm honest, it's the lack of all-day drinking that bothered me. Now Christmas is a proper holiday. You start with fizz at breakfast, more fizz opening the presents. Then it's time to head to the pub for a faceful of ale. Then back for pre-dinner drinks. Then fine wines with dinner, possibly port and/or brandy after dinner, then telly with more wine and perhaps a dram or some more brandy before bed. You basically don't stop drinking for 12-14 hours. Marvellous.

    No, I started making a big thing out of it years ago, as a dry run for Christmas lunch. The old man and I and the rest of our squad at the controls* in the kitchen all day; the dollies indoors talking about fashion and whatnot, I suppose; putting their feet up.
