The injustice of being a couple during christmas time food allocations is hard to swallow, particularly during brunch. Presumably it is too hard for people with children to organise anything other than bread sticks? One memorable year I was allocated the task of purchasing and preparing smoked salmon finger food for 30 while my cousin’s family of 6 came with a large tin of peaches. I hope that the chickens were fantastic.

Not so much with the "better person" assessment! I've just been on the phone to mum where I reverted to my 15 year old self - all "well, we're going but we're not happy about it, and I'm not eating sushi rolls on Christmas day".

You’re a much better person than I am. I would have simply had a big and delicious homemade breakfast and then picked up two Red Rooster chickens on the way to Geelong.
