I am afraid that you will not find Fresh turkeys--at least one might have been able to order one to be flown in from Epicerie Gourmand but obviously far too late now..there have been frozen ones for some time in SuperU and having had these for the past 13 Christmasses they are fine. Parsnips and turnips--no way likewise ready made Yorkshire puddings.

Hi Ann,
I made Yorkshire puddings the other day using the local basic bagged up flour, instead of putting 2 eggs in I put 3 eggs in and they turned out to be the best biggest yorkies ever! xx

Ummmmmmm...Yorkshire puddings :)
We always have Yorkies with every Roast - I know they are usually served with roast beef - but times are a changing in the Uk and most pubs and restaurants offer yorkies with a roast dinner :)
