Yesterday went as planned, I went to the Dr's with Dh, and he had his procedure, a keratosis removed from his face. He's ok, but is starting to bruise. When we got home…

Do shops ever run out of turkeys at christmas
I am hosting 10 this Christmas. I am thinking two turkey crowns at each end of the table. Going to get frozen because for me, it’s all about the trimmings. I have limited freezer space. But I was wondering if anyone has known the shops to run out of turkeys at Christmas. Was going to buy them on 22 or 23. They will slowly…
