Trying to decide if it is worthwhile making a trip to get lamb. Any idea how much a lamb leggy weighs?

I just got back from Sainsburys, didn't look at the weight of them but they seemed to be priced around £9.50 - £10 each. You could work out rough weight from that with the per kg prices quoted above.

I usually get my meat from a local farm shop but I'm not sure I can afford it anymore as we're now on one wage. Can't quite bring myself to buy meat from the supermarket again, the taste of the meat and poultry from the farm shop is superb and only the organic or TTD/finest meat from supermarkets comes close. Have also heard that although supermarkets say free range the conditions aren't that great; when I go to the farm shop, I drive past the chooks on my way in in their lovely big field. So whilst I procrastinate, we're eating a lot of fish, although sainsburys appear to be the only ones who source responsibly for their basics range.
