I can't comment on the prices they quote per lb (especially as they are sold by kg) but £66 for a turkey is ridiculous. Few people buy to feed 12 these days, and that probably over-caters anyway, leaving the family eating turkey for the next week and a half.

One thing that rasied a smile though - it's not just about the cost of turkeys.
No, because this is the Hate Mail.
It's about how that wonderful English tradition is being made near impossible by the Indians and the Chinese. Greedy fat foreigners.
(tradition here was goose anyway)

This year we are going out for Christmas dinner (yay!)
But for Boxing Day we don't just have a turducken. Oh no....!!!!!
THIS year we have a four bird roast.
Turkey, duck, goose and chicken.
Probably all glued together with meat glue, but who cares. £9.99 and it will last us for days.
