2 shoulders
2 legs
2 racks of chops
1 loin
2 breasts
2 kidneys
liver

All i need to do now is check the prices of the joints tomorrow! and I will let you all know how much profit we are being robbed to pay the supermarkets!

You forgot heart, sweet breads, the pluck, & shanks!

Preparedathome, if you get it to grow, holly makes an excellent hedge to keep folk out of your garden

Ginny all the sheep I've seen have 4 legs or is it as a veggie that there's something I've missed? like never eat the front ones or something?......god that sounds yuckie!

Well we had a really old style tea tonight. HM soup made from cabbage, onions, carrots, lentils and barley. Followed by a sort of fish cakey type thing made with mashed tatties, bacon bits, onions, and cabbage. I cooked it long and slow and it was LOVELY. So however much that cost it wasnt a lot, and meals like that might be a big help to us in the days to come.
God.. I nearly said "in the dark days to come"...been reading too many wartime books! :eek:

Thank you Annie :rotfl: it was late when I was pootling about. I now understand your comment elsewhere :rotfl:. Well it made you all think didnt it. I do live in the inner city you know Anyway all in all the supermarkets are making a fortune 'off the back ' of lambs

its a good job I have a sense of humour or I would be quoting all these comments and taking umbrage :rotfl:

Im going to have a luxurious bath now and not think about succulent roast lamb with mint sauce but all those endangered 2 legged lams wandering about :beer:
