I must admit, we've bee guilty of it ourselves. But I love the old tradition of the Sunday dinner too. We had a lovely Sunday roast in a pub in Dorset when we were there 2 years ago. Shire dings and roasties, Karen?

Ruth Gregory Posts: 8072 Joined: 25th Jul 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 22:08 on 10th September 2011 Ah, the two best parts of the meal, along with the parsnips. As northern dishes go, I'd never heard of mushy peas til we visited N. Yorkshire and I think they're great!
