A Fine Feast

First, I start with soup and bread: 
A lentil porridge,
And then turkey breast and veg
With Yorkshire pudding -
Plenty of gravy -
Washed down with
Ale!

Lentil porridge, and turkey? I thought mixing ones drinks was dangerous. Best of luck in the comp.

oh, Jack, my friend, you must know I hate this kind of food. hahaha. But the way you described it was so MANLY with the ale at the end, I just knew it had to be a good hearty Englishman that wrote this. Congrats. You wrote it very well.

A fine feast indeed! Like how it flows along fluently. I too must have bread to dip when I'm eating! This is an ideal entry for the contest. // paul
