    I was always the guest that didn't eat beef. If we went to somebody's house for a meal they would just bung in a roast chicken, a chicken breast or a turkey breast. I would be horrified if they had changed an entire menu just for me. If you did a roast chicken and served some to your friend you could have the rest for your tea tomorrow, make up the gravy at the same time and you'll have a really quick tea tomorrow.
    Just run, run and keep on running!

    I didn't mean to sound like I was moaning about it *oops* but I did think it was a bit off only letting me know this morning. I have prepared the chicken now and don't mind doing that, but she could have let me know sooner, especially as up until now she has always eaten beef!

    PP sorry if I sounded rude too, I didn't mean to :(

    Maybe she knows something concerning beef that the rest of us don't :eek: .

    Actually I am just waiting for everyone to start boycotting poultry. Then watch the price of beef and lamb go sky high!

    Bacon butty anyone? ;)
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    One thing that amazed me the other day was checking the price per kilo of cheese. It's darn near the same as price per kilo as beef!

    Do what?

    Sheesh!
