A glass of champagne to kick off, plus a decent Rioja or Sauvignon blanc with the meal

Smoked salmon cornets stuffed with pear, avocado, and shrimp bound in a horseradish mayo.

A nice young Pinkfoot goose shot on the Solway a few weeks ago brought on as a sub for the usual turkey and served with much the same accompaniments; spicy red cabbage, goose fat roasted spuds and parsnips, five spice carrots, broccoli for the masochists, and crunchy stuffing balls.

Xmas pudding flamed in brandy, with custard and or ice cream.

A selection of Welsh artisan cheeses, bikkies and a port.

Coffee and brandy or Calvados aux choix.

Life's a bugger innit?
