Re: Meat prices and Ordering online

Regarding ordering meat on-line, two websites spring to mind:

www.turnerandgeorge.co.uk

Expensive and London based, but excellent quality stuff - they did meatopia last year

www.knightonsfamilybutchers.co.uk

A bit cheaper but they have good reviews as well.

I haven't personally used either but ...
