The Boy Of The House (BOTH) helped with the preparations (podding peas, peeling potatoes and making the stuffing). The Man Of The House (MOTH) managed to stir himself to carve the joint at the appointed time.
Monkey the Greyhound played his part by venturing into the kitchen and staying there while the LOTH and BOTH were preparing the repast.
This was new and something he had never done before as he likes to remain on his day bed in the front room away from anything as common as work.
We thought it was only fair that as Monkey had made the effort to watch the preparations Monkey got to join in by finishing off the leftovers.
It didn't take him long to get through the garlic and rosemary lamb, roast potatoes, stuffing, peas and carrots. He seemed a bit miffed that there wasn't a Yorkshire pudding going spare but that didn't stop him devouring the lot in a trice.

don't mind if I do.
Is that it?
Maybe the LOTH is right when she says Monkey is a fan of The Archers!
