OH went to pick up the turkey crown this morning from the local butcher just opened recently. We are going to son-in-law's mum for Christmas so we were having that on Boxing Day. They had no note of my order, even though I saw it being written down in a book when I paid the deposit!!! They had no crowns left, so he came home with a huge boned turkey joint and they wouldn't take any more money for it as it was their mistake they said. Good job we all like turkey
