Was in my local butcher just to buy meat but ended up buying a whole cooked chicken. Had some breast which was lovely but went to give Mr Harv a little and found the leg was rather pink.

I now have it in oven to cook even more. Are yous happy with a cooked chicken?

I don't buy them often for that reason but it will be my last. I usually cook my own but they looked scrumptious.

I would have difficulty finishing the whole chicken by myself but I've bought cooked pieces before now and that was fine. Many many years ago I recall my mother used to buy a 'garlic' chicken for dinner for the family each Saturday. Nice, never had a problem with any of them.

Well OG - I certainly won't be eating whole chicken but when I am happy with the colour, will dissect it and freeze.

On the subject of food - will never ever be buying prawns - have come to conclusion they all taste like rubber bands in a sauce.

Do you remember when they had them roasting in a big glass sided oven and the aroma was wafted all along the street?
It might have made a vegetarian forget his principles.

Sandy that is where my chicken came from.

Prawns are only popular because they come in a Marie Rose sauce :-)
I'm sure they must be good for you though.

There used to be one of those ovens in a shop in Castle St. Come to think of it, I haven't seen any for a while.

They are knocking about Sandy - you know the main supermarkets do them too - you should see them at the delicatessen/butchery.

I'll buy a half of one the next time I'm shopping

Yes, I buy cooked chicken - sometimes we eat it hot, at the moment I have two cold roast chicken legs in the fridge, ready for a salad.

Prawns - I love prawns, but I tend to buy the bigger ones now. The little shrimps don't tast of anything.

The roast chickens in our local Morrisons are revolting .Dry as a nuns whatnot ,although their cold sliced chicken breast from the deli counter is really nice.
I only ever buy prawns and shellfish from the fishmonger.

The fish and shellfish from our Morrisons (surprisingly, fish) counter is very good!
