Didn't do Xmas as Mrs W was end of life and died on 27th Dec. Can't see me being up for much this year; will be on my own so probably go for a piece of steak or maybe lamb. Definitely won't be buying a turkey, so that's one panic buying bandwagon that won't impact me

Except they're probably all booked up, or will be very shortly? Never liked turkey personally, we normally go with a massive chicken if we have guests. Have always like the idea of doing beef or something though.Originally posted by ladymuck View PostOrder from a local farm and you'll be fine, I'm sure.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
