Good ol' British Roast....
British!! TT what were you thinking 
Had a couple of ideas, but one would of been too much of a setup, so ended up using my second idea, it cost me though 
Went out this afternoon and had a sunday roast with the girlfriend, who once again had to put up with me snapping in a public place But at least I got an entry in, because at times I wasn't sure I was going to this month, and 'no' that guy on the right didn't want to move

Re: Good ol' British Roast....
Its got a great depth and a real nice earthy glow. Fosters though? I think an Ale of some sort would be more British. Is Fosters not Australian or is it just their adds? The mat is deffinately British. Did your poor girlfriend have cold food by the time she was allowed to sit down and eat hers?!!

Re: Good ol' British Roast....
Really like this one - the mixed lighting has been handled nicely, and the composition is good too. On theme, and no flags so it's a big  from me.
Oh, and to back you up on this one. Fosters is both brewed in the UK, and owned by a UK company

I've only had one day off this whole month and preferred to spend it with my family. I did take one photo which I might use, but I'm kind of hoping that I'll have another chance before the Friday deadline.
This is a great entry btw - Looks like a top quality pub meal.
