Christmas Day, 2013.

It's everyone's duty at Xmas to keep capitalism going by always discarding the olde and embracing the new. So, it's out with the slot cars and in with a non-digital battery powered train set.
Verdict? Goes like the clappers but the handling leaves a lot to be desired.
Vicky is recuperating from her recent surgery so does not wish to have her photo taken today, thank you. So Emlyn's job is to act as a barrier between lens and subject at all times whilst she instructs David on the black arts of cooking a splendiferous Christmas dinner.
The stuffing is standing and the veggos are ready for chopping.
The Chef creates some chicken-sausage meat and turkey-bacon rolls.
The sounds and smells of cooking are a constant source of fascination (not to mention torture).
If my legs looked like those I wouldn't show 'em off, no way!
Things have gone well so far but David is in need of a power nap prior to the climatic intensity of 'serving it all up'.

All-in-all, it went pretty well, all things considered. 
Not as good as one of Vicky's but ok for a first attempt.

Vicky gave it a 19/20. Emlyn scored it 20/20. He particularly liked his bacon and stuffing on a ocean of gravy.
