I am eagerly awaiting the first yank to say to me "what do you mean you don't have thanksgiving in Ireland?"

We are on a 12 year successful run right now. Not even Vardy can top that.

In 1621 the myth of thanksgiving was born. The colonists invited Massasoit, chief of the Wampanoags, to their first feast as a follow up to their recent land deal. Massasoit in turn invited 90 of his men, much to the chagrin of the colonists. Two years later the English invited a number of tribes to a feast "symbolizing eternal friendship." The English offered food and drink, and two hundred Indians dropped dead from unknown poison.

The first day of thanksgiving took place in 1637 amidst the war against the Pequots. 700 men, women, and children of the Pequot tribe were gathered for their annual green corn dance on what is now Groton, Connecticut. Dutch and English mercenaries surrounded the camp and proceeded to shoot, stab, butcher and burn alive all 700 people. The next day the Massachusetts Bay Colony held a feast in celebration and the governor declared "a day of thanksgiving." In the ensuing madness of the Indian extermination, natives were scalped, burned, mutilated and sold into slavery, and a feast was held in celebration every time a successful massacre took place. The killing frenzy got so bad that even the Churches of Manhattan announced a day of "thanksgiving" to celebrate victory over the "heathen savages," and many celebrated by kicking the severed heads of Pequot people through the streets like soccer balls.

So the americans invented football?

Pequot have a casino down the road from us. Foxwoods. Lots of old people with emphysema spending their reversed mortgage payments

Yee haww indeed.

My favourite part is always making the bacon blanket.

Lattice a load of bacon together and place over the turkey's breast as if its a nice pork blanket. We stick the turkey in at about 1am. I'll wake up tomorrow morning to the smell of bacony turkey in the house.

then remove the bacon blanket and eat for brunch

I never did get the pumpkin pie thing. Or the one with the yams and, what is it, marshmallows on top? Not my thing.

Apple pie, vanilla ice cream will do.

Or a vienetta.
