£37.43 for a fkin Turkey, and it aint even the whole bird, apparently its a crown ... didnt go down too well when i said "well for nigh on 40 quid it better have fkin jewels on it"
have a joint of beef on christmas day then have turkey during the week when you could pick up the same bird for £5 Be careful with those birds you pick up for a fiver Iron... |

LOL just seen this thread.
My sister asked me to sort out the turkey this year and I thought I'd err on the side of caution and get a biggun.
16lbs between 6 of us should suffice I thought.
Decided on a fresh one so ordered it from the butchers where I get all my dog's food from cus it's a nice place.
Eventually went to pick up my emu on Christmas eve.
FIFTY EIGHT FOOKIN QUID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On the plus side everyone said it was the nicest they've ever had and we're actually enjoying the emu stew / emu sandwiches that are still available.
Belated Merry Christmas everyone.

I took 8 of my family out to dinner christmas day to save the hassle of cooking washing up and the stress that can occur from running around, highlight of the day was a tight wad member of the family saying lets buy our own drinks and proceeding to buy themselves and one other a drink "cause i owe you one". I seriously had to restrain from saying well pay for your own ******* dinner.
Insta scrubbed off invite list for next year.
Family don't you just love'em at times.
