Chicken and veggies X three. I cooked my pork belly with onions and oranges and put the gravy in the fridge overnight to separate the fat. I shall do that this morning and that's the end of food related items for Xmas!

Sorry I ignored your post Sue! For some reason I overlooked it. I had a damp patch last year, turned out it was a cavity in the wall that was trapping water. My builders tracked it down and over time the plaster in the front room dried out. Because my standards aren't as high as yours that was good ...
