Perhaps everyone's busy wrapping presents and suchlike.
I have wrapped all mine. Badly. I can only wrap presents badly.
But it's what's inside the wrapping that counts!

Make sure you buy a turkey that will keep MisterJay well catered for in turkey sandwiches 'til February, won't you?

plenty of time....

As Misterjay is currently suffering a tummy bug I don't think a turkey is the top of my list of purchases.
Just hoping he's recovered enough to celebrate at some stage in the holiday.
Afterthought: Last summer when I defrosted the freezer I threw out boxes labeled "Turkey Xmas 2002", "Turkey Xmas 2003", "Turkey Xmas 2004". I think I should throw out the 2005 box too.

Maybe they work in hexidecimal - 'F' in hex is 15 in decimal, so maybe
FRSM is grade 15
