I don't bother brining it, always turns out fine. I'd also keep the beef away from visitors. I'd have beef on the big day but my wife and kids would be gutted if there was no Turkey.

Yes, we always used to get a frozen turkey as a backup option in case we couldn't get a nice fresh one. Few years ago we didn't get a fresh one so used the frozen. Haven't bothered with fresh since. No difference.

Difficult to choose but I reckon Romance just edges it for me.

That's a no from me then.

I need to go to Wimpy again. They don't mess about.

I used to love Wimpy as a kid but I don't know that one, I'm in Y gogledd.
Last Wimpy I went to was in Liverpool in the 90s when I was a student there. Do they still have plates?
