british sausage week dinner

On Saturday night, Aly, Richie, Helen, Andy and Bill came round to dinner. It was British Sausage Week, so Matt had a chance to try out the new sausage maker I'd given him for his birthday. He made Roman chicken sausages, and pork sausages with lots of herbs from the roof terrace. They were all delicious, and we ate them with mashed parsnip and potato, and a cider gravy. We also all got quite pissed and played an extremely loud and hilarious game of Articulate. Aly and Richie had brought their dog, Poppy, so Mouse spent most of the evening cowering elegantly under the bed, though she came out for a bit when we went to bed, looking suspiciously at Poppy before heading back under again.
