Really sorted freezers out so had room for 2 chickens as Xmas presents for the kids. Then went shopping again and now have plenty of chicken portions (for me) lamb, beef and pork. Split into portion sizes and enough meats for me for at least 2 months meals. Must keep out of shops as I have now got a good weeks worth of vegs as well as freezers full of all sorts. Have frozen milk, long life and dried, bread making stuff. NO SHOPPING.0
