Only consumers are affected by the snow. Everyone else is able to continue as normal. FACT.

You better ask the people stuck in minehead holiday camp mate.

So not a FACT as you say...

I don't even like Turkey truth be told. I know it's tradition and all but if for some reason we didn't have it at the table this year, I don't think I'd give a toss.

I don't like it either but we have 9 people coming on Christmas day!

I have arthritis in my knees and can't walk to the local Tesco (closest supermarket) and back.

I would rather chew my own leg off than shop at Tesco online, you get the stuff that's nearly out of date and the stuff they want to get rid of.

Like others have said go and get one.

Did you get charged for the non existant poultry?

Well really your turkey problem could be solved very easily by nipping to the shops. It pales in comparison to the problems people stranded at airports are facing - not being able to see family at Christmas and so on.

We're having one of them 3 in 1 birds again! It's going to be amazing!

Just ask a mate to get you one M0T, or one of the people who are attending your Christmas dinner. Bring your own Turkey!

When the people at the airports make a thread I will show my support.

Funny enough, a few people I know do it that way. Whoever hosts, does the least (in terms of contributing food.) Someone brings the turkey, someone brings the mash, someone brings the veg, etc, etc.

You're welcome.

Just think, you might have to go cold turkey over Christmas.

Strangely my girlfriends family cooks their turkey on christmas eve and then carves it on christmas day, using only the heat of the gravy on it :eek:

I'm sure they'd appreciate it more than someone coming in and behaving like a grumpy sod for the sake of it.

Take 20 minutes to write a letter of complaint. You will almost certainly get a load of vouchers or something of that ilk.

What a stupid comment. By your very same 'logic', people stuck at airports have nothing to complain about as they are not dead.

The fact that someone else is worse off than you, does not mean that you have no valid gripe when your online Christmas shop turns up without a turkey, and you then get further gash customer service when you get on the phone to complain about the website inconsistency.

Presumably you wouldn't complain if some fool drove into you whilst out on the roads, cause hey, AT LEAST YOU'RE NOT DEAD LOL.

:rolleyes:

You could try something actually British like Goose or Beef or Venison possibly Duck make a GooDucken that would be EPIC.
