why not try Alex K he knows all the answers (?)

VERY RUDE OF Alex K you did not read the post on the net or are the net wrong and your so CALLED BUTCHER wrong or right ??? i know as i am a butcher for a lot of years now and i do know the NAME of what i sell unlike some, its just a case of telling the truth you dont have to lie to your customers or DO YOU.ps you can buy a signboard that says what ever you want it to say.

Alex K you still not looking at the post. The name is still applied by some of us in the trade, but the CORRECT TERM should be large Christmas chicken. It has been almost 40 years since caponizing was banned; chicken breeders then took on the challenge to develop a bird that would fill the void left and succeeded! Although slow grown we can now produce birds of 4 - 6.5kgs (8-14lbs) oven ready for Christmas. Chicken with taste hope this explains THE RIGHT NAME for the bird so what are you going to order A CAPON?? OR A LARGE CHRISTMAS CHICKEN ask the butcher he should know if not go to a butcher who knows his trade.or a SUPERMARKET THEY KNOW THE NAME. have a look

thanks ClareC Today, 08:39AM anyway just buy a turkey;-)

Huguenot Yesterday, 03:36PM did you not read the link i put up The word Capon is an old-fashioned term for a large chicken eaten at Christmas. The name is still applied by some of us in the trade, but the CORRECT TERM should be large Christmas chicken. It has been almost 40 years since caponizing was banned; chicken breeders then took on the challenge to develop a bird that would fill the void left and succeeded!

http://aylesbury.duckfarm.co.uk/richard/waller/capon read the link for the real name of the bird, all your REAL BUTCHERS should know the name for what thay are selling ,surely they are not lying to their customers.if so what else do thay lie about. makes you think dont it.

thay dont call them capons any more thanks to the eec the new name is large roasting capon style chicken http://www.mettricksbutchers.co.uk/p10230/Large-Capon-Style-Chicken/product_info.html

hope thay open a 99p shop that will do a great trade your see ,why some people dont like iceland i dont know have thay ever been in the shop and looked the fresh fruit and veg is the same as most supermarkets sell and the bread is a brand make ie kingsmill and hovis and guess what thay sell Heinz as well and at a better price well when this when this recession kicks in we will all be glad of shops like iceland. go on have a look and see for yourself you might surprise yourself.

i think this is a great idea and as for Marmora Man Yesterday, 10:56PM all things start somewhere, who knows when this will happen dulwich. and then the Marmora Man. Today, 07:49AM backed tracked and said this. why did he not say this in his first post only he knows. he puts a foot note and i quote Should we, in Dulwich, be concerned about a stolen dog in Canterbury?. bet he reads the newepapers and reads about the world news or maybe he lives in his little world in dulwich and no crime happens at all its sad

i think split it in half and have 1 half as a 99p shop and the other half as a 99p restaurant any dish 99p what a great idea you can go out with a ?10 do your shopping and eat and still get change out of a tenner in this day and age its got to be a winner

what this area really needs is a 99p shop not another restaurant.

ONLY SHOT OFF MY EAR the bad thing about this is i cant wear dark glasses when i run in to peckham to the 99p shop any body want to do some shoping for a one eared man. cant pay you buy will give my bus pass for the day YES THE WHOLE DAY. and dont believe lilly123 only 1 bang not bang bang. but then again only had 1 ear left after the first bang.i was going to phone the old bill but i cant hear a thing.

quote: what a shame some people really have idea some people want a shop like icelands to shop in NOT LOOK AT ,well did you not hear the gunshots? only hit my ear but i am all right now, just to think people dont want the likes of iceland in the area lets hope a 99p shop opens soon that will be great or are we to proud to buy from them , you can wear dark glasses when you go in just in case some one see you heaven forbid. ps do not use the bags a dead giveaway

why dont the residents of the local area buy icelands and open a nice curry house or bar this is just what the area really need not a shop that you can buy food from that you have to cook yourselves but a curry house. what a shame some people really have idea
