talking to my parents the other day they asked what we were having for sunday dinner,i said a normal sunday roast as usual,they then said they dont have the traditional sunday dinner anymore but curry instead so that got me thinking how many people still have a traditional sunday dinner?and if not what do they have instead?

I guess if we totted up roast dinners then most would happen on Sundays but like bloke its usually not a lot different to other days if i'm honest. Shame really.

Not had a Sunday roast for almost 3 years, cos thats when I moved outta my mums and got me own place - wonder if she'd let me move back in every Sunday :twisted:
I wanted to do a roast dinner today.
Two of my kids back from uni, the other one floating around.
Went to buy all the stuff, came home, one has gone off to her boyfriends, one is now going out with his mates, the youngest says shes not hungry, and is now on a diet anyway!
Bought enough for 5, only 2 of u now!
Dont know why I bother sometimes!!

If I go home to my parents on a Sunday it's usually a roast for dinner. I don't cook a roast in my house... mainly because cooking that sort of meal for one person is a bit rubbish and given my infamous cooking skills I'm not sure anyone would want to share it! 
I have no idea what I'm having for dinner tonight but I should really make some sort of effort since last nights' dinner consisted of pringles and chocolate! :lol:

Last night I did a homemade stilton soup followed by beef wellington with all the trimmings and finshed off with a lovely maple pecan cheesecake (thank you Nigella). Table looked nice with flowers and candles etc. I also bought her some chocs which she allowed me to rub over her gorgeous tits and then lick off.
Today the management has decided she wants simple 'picky' food. So, a pork pie and bag of crisps is what she will get.
Might have a couple more chocs though

I haven't had a Sunday roast for months. I love them but I can;t see the point in all that work. I'd be cooking all morning and clearing up all afternoon. I only get 2 days weekend. Sunday lunch is like any other meal - what we have in at the time.
I love to cook a full Sunday roast but it's so much bloody hard work and by the time it's done I rarely feel like eating it 
Plus I have to try and remember which kid likes what vegetable or there will be tantrums for sure :twisted:
Love the idea of a roast every week but just too blooming lazy

We have a Sunday roast every week, except if it is very hot ( fat chance ).
It is still a good British tradition, that sadly seems to be falling at the wayside. You only have to look in a Mcdonalds on a Sunday to see how many people are eating rubbish even on a Sunday. :cry:
We all sit down together on most nights, and I believe a Sunday is THE most important day for the family to eat together. I know people will say thats all old fashioned now maybe but....sitting together for a meal is an integral part of family life.
The thought of us going to Mcdonalds for our Sunday dinner, eating it with our fingers well....I could not see that happening. Maybe I am just not " with it ".

Thank goodness it isn't a choice between sunday roast and macdonalds. At our house we eat together whenever we are all in. And it is almost always home-made apart from the odd take-away delivery. And we don't wait to eat to get together and communicate either. My son and I have long, convoluted conversations right through the day and evening.
People say it's a tradition. But I wonder how long it's been going in it's current form. Not long I suspect. Most families haven't been able to afford a joint for centuries.

Are they the same families that can afford a takeaway most nights, or the same families that eat in Mcdonanlds every Sunday?
A roast dinner can easily be cooked for four people for less than a tenner. A Mcdonalds for four could cost as much as 20 quid. But then I suppose no washing up to do after. :wink:

Not had a roast today but I've got a chicken to do tomorrow night. Not sure why people make such a big deal out of roasts, it's a really easy meal to make. Plus once it's all been eaten I can make stock for a nice soup......yum
I think the thing with traditional Sunday roasts was the idea of getting all the family sat down together on a 'non-working day' - generally. These days it's different.
I think a roast is one of the nicest, easiest, tastiest and relatively cheap meals to make! the smell coming from your oven is wonderful and you can have cold beef butties the next day :lickface:
I'm off on a Sunday and I find it very relaxing to cook a roast lunch, in saying that I don't do it every week, just when we fancy it.

Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant that for centuries the majority of families were happy to get a rabbit for the pot every so often, and that was poached. The majority of meals were pottage veg and a handful of beans saved and dry from last year. Basically saying that while a roast dinner is called traditional - it's only been a tradition for a few generations.
I agree about the awfulness of macdonalds (or many others) but any time a family gets together and actually communicates has to be good. :D
