CHRISTMAS HAMPERS _

Basket cases!

What kind of Christmas will you be having this year? Will it be glugging Krug at the ancestral pile, surrounded by oak panelling and grouse moors? Or perhaps a few friends are coming round to play Pictionary and sample those cheeky wines you got a ten per cent discount on when you bought a case. Or maybe any foodie pretensions will be abandoned in favour of the telly and some plain Scottish fare, with plenty of it. Whatever you choose, you’ll be eating in style with The List Christmas scoff-fest which will arouse your appetite and titillate your tastebuds. Enjoy!
