A Little Bit Odd

[teacake44]

Its very strange that so far no national newspaper as forecast a shortage of turkeys to the run up of the jolly season, they normally come up with it about this time of year., unless they are counting the one's in parliament. :0)

As long as I don’t get a slice of Jo Swinson, a right tough old bird

[retrocop]

I recall you normally get a sprout dearth warning before the HoHo day.
Wrong frost or something. :-(

[woofgang]

anybody who wants them can have mine

[Mamyalynne]

I'll have any extra sprouts and someone can have my turkey, always go for beef.

[aelmpvw]

if there is a shortage of turkeys it will be down to brexit ...

[NellieMay]

I can't stand turkey, so it really won't worry me. Rib of beef for us, or a nice steak as there are only the two of us.

[HansUrbancka]

It will Not all be down to Brexit. France will have to take some of the blame if there is a shortage of Turkeys this coming Christmas.

I normally do a large Turkey crown and rolled brisket for the gravy, not keen on game gravy

[teacake44]

You deserve a crown Bobbs, your the queen of AB !! ho ho

[Bobbisox1]

Reverting to haha’s here
Oh my Days, my crown slipped and choked me nine years ago , hahahaha :0))))))

[Jackdaw33]

My mother used to make the gravy from the giblets.

[Bobbisox1]

A lot did Jack

[retrocop]

I do to JD but you don't get giblets with the crown unfortunately.

[ummmm]

Not many answers and already this thread is weird.

[jourdain2]

They've been far too busy warning of shortages of pigs-in-blankets and other festive foods which would be due to Brexit. Give them time. :(

[Buenchico]

As Jourdain2 points out, you might have the turkey but not everything that goes with it this year:

[NellieMay]

I would never dream of buying pigs in blankets when they are so easy to make!

[Bobbisox1]

I did like them intensely, never have them on my plate

[HansUrbancka]

Do folk actually cook such a an animal ?!
