DRS - that's a heck of alot of firewood - were you roasting oxen every day ? I am also on LPG and filled the tank back in Sept - similar price as oil but far more efficient IMHO !
For my Xmas prep, all is complete and the turkey was in the oven last night timed to come on at 6 am this morning (24th) as I have my boys today and the rest of the family are coming over to help clear up the scraps this evening.
Don't laugh, but I ordered a 3kg turkey, enough for 6 people from a chap at work who's grandfather owns an abbatoir in Wales. £20, I thought great, saves me the trouble..
...and he turns up with one that is 7.6kg, same price, it's the size of an Ostrich and serves 20-30. The lights have dimmed in the village as my cooker tries to cook the damn thing !
Oh, more turkey tomorrow too, and Sunday....oh for some roast beef , or ham !
Happy Christmas !
