What size joint do I need?

I've got some friends coming for dinner on Sunday and I've decided to do a leg of lamb.
The people I get my veg box from have just started doing meat too so I've decided to get it from there.
The problem I've got is I don't know which size to go for.
There'll be 4 adults and 1 child and the options I have are 1kg, 1.5kg or 2kg (all weights are with bone in). I'm used to choosing by looking at the size and never really pay attention to how much it weighs!
Which would you go for?
Thanks

Assuming that there isnt an extorionately huge difference in price, i'd go for the biggest. That way, you're not going to be faced with the problem of too small a joint turning up, and you can have fun with the leftovers.I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are – Milton Berle0

Hi there
I would go for the largest one too...there is nothing worse than not having enough (especially when you have visitors)..and if you have leftovers...just think of all those extra meals:D-6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.50
