    Out 2 x trout, 4 bread rolls, cooked turkey neck - please don't turn your nose up at turkey neck I grew them myself, organic, and the biggest one dressed out at over 21kg, so you can imagine (or maybe not) how much meat there was on the neck - shame to waste it. I've used it for soup.

    Pamdish - any shopping yet?  I'm doing ok so far, but I don't have much milk left.
