... wwyd?


I like a turkey on the 25th but I just can't get my head round ordering things for Christmas when I don't even really acknowledge Christmas is happening until about the 15th.


I need a free range bird but other than that am not absolutely precious about it. No matter how hard I try I never seem to be able to hit the Sainsbury's Dog Kennel Hill tiny window of opportunity for getting the small free range ones off the shelf.


Any tips on a good time to get to Sainsbos? And if not there, then were else? Does the Co-Op do them? Lidl in Peckham? Waitrose in Beckenham?


Given that the weather is balmy and my fridge is quite small, I'm not going to want to store it for too long.


Cheers.

If anyone you know has a Christmas order booked from any of the supermarkets, you could ask them to check to see if they could get you a bird. I have my Christmas delivery booked for Monday, but when I reserved the slot a few weeks ago, all the turkeys were marked as sold-out. I checked again this morning and they had some again.

Phew....

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
