Winter Blues Not for Long

image345963742.jpgSo tis the wintery dull month that is Jan, consider that it was Christmas Day only 2 weeks ago.

Well things to look forward to are, 57 days until we go to Singapore, 178 days until the Mrs is dare I say it 21 for the 19th time and only 350 days until Santa arrives.

So not that dull and horrible is it?

Hippo Bath Day to Me

image100506015.jpgSo in a few hours it will be my *^% Bath Day (think I am gonna say how old I is?). Put it this way mentally I will achieve puberty soon.

So Mrs Foggy has a big box sat on the landing for my prezzie, with what can only be described as the worlds bestist wrapping paper.

Hippo Bath Day to Me.

Christmas Over I’m Bushed

image630366333.jpgSo it’s now the 2nd Jan and I’m bushed, got woken at 5am by Mr Fogg to open his prezzies, then had to stay awake until 2.30am on New Years Day whilst everyone got tiddly.

Me so tired now I gotta rest, thank goodness there is still 356 days, 4 hours and 30 minutes until we start it all again.

Night meow.

About to Brave the Cold

image1376599969.jpgWhat a fantastic New Years Eve and New Years Day. Five bottles of champagne were used to see in 2011, along with a few games of Scene It the movie game and Jools Hollands Hootenany.

Mrs Fogg did first footing with coal and whiskey an we eventually called it a night at 2.30am.

This morning my head was a wee bit soar but we rose and played a few rounds of Rapido (the Foggies whopped ass there) before a full on meal with roasties, Yorkshire puds and the works.

We finished off the day with the racing reindeer and puddings before Stu and Jen left us with the washing up.

It must be cold because Stu had his winter bonnet on or is this his preparation for panto season?

Wooo Hoooo Bolly

image171857402.jpgYes we saw in the New Year with this bad boy, no not me or Caddie but the bottle (Magnum) of Bollinger.

Whoo Yaaaa roll on this year and it’s only a few hundred days to Christmas 2011.

Here’s to the next decade.

Happy New Year from the Foggies & Caddies

image22493593.jpgHappy New Year to everyone from the Foggies and the Caddies (ok so we is a wee bit early). This year Stu & Jen have joined us to see in the New Year, play silly games (Scene It, Rapido, guess the alcoholic beverage, etc).

Two bottles of Champers down so far and the bad boy left to go (a Magnum of Bollinger all set to see in the chimes).

Mrs Foggy will be first footing again this year and finished off the evening meal with Haggis Neeps n Tatties with whiskey (oh boy).

So only 2 hours left and we is all a wee bit tiddly.

Here’s to an even better 2011 with even more champers.

Happy New Year

My first Korma

image1930852916.jpgToday I cooked my first ever Korma. We had left over turkey to use and I found a recipe on the British Turkey website for a Korma dish.

Ok, so it might not look so good as leftover but I’m really pleased with the outcome. Mild with a kick is the best description.

Might just have to try that again…

Feast fit for a King

image1640752961.jpgWell little turkey cooked to perfection, sprouts exquisite, roasts fantastic, stuffing fabulous, a feast fit for a king and my queen, Mrs Fogg.

Mrs Fogg dressed for dinner and I even slung on something a little smarter than shorts.

Now all we gotta do is rest the belly, finish the Krug Champoo and chill.

Another fantastic Christmas day.

What a Turkey…

image1362092901.jpgMr Fogg has just stuffed the turkey and is about to pop it in the oven. I’m sure it should be bigger though……

A 10lb turkey, roast potatoes, sprouts, chipolatas, carrots, stuffing and gravy, can’t wait. We’ll both be asleep later after that little lot.

Happy Christmas All!!

Merry Christmas 2010

image1249099440.jpgYeeee Haaaaaa it’s Christmas Day. I got up at 5am but left Mrs Foggy asleep until 6am.

So a wonderful morning and lots of prezzies, thank you to everyone.

So to warm the cockles here is us having a snog under our tree.

Right time to go and get the turkey ready.
