Pleased to report the garage cooking went well: I strung Christmas lights up to entertain the rabble as they checked on progress.
If food poisoning were to have happened I would have had feedback by now.
Astonishing quantities of cheap red were consumed, whereas beer stocks got off lightly.
My eldest daughter, in traditional first-born prefect mode, warned about carbon monoxide poisoning, my youngest said she was RGN RHV with a surgeon in tow so could treat any such lurgi. Middle daughter said that she understood beer was the antidote.
Roll on Christmas.
