That would be fine. You two get organised, and PM me to confirm, please.

I've had two taken already, on top of the 6, so don't delay, commit today!

You're going to take half a pig to work with you?

It can lie there quietly under the desk.

Well, it's hardly going to get up and make a mess, is it.

I always find that the more pieces they are divided into, the better behaved they are.

So all those stories of rampant sausages are untrue?

sorry to come to this thread so late, I haven't been reading the trading section much lately

Just wanted to say that Nick's pigs are very tasty, made fantastic bacon and an air dried ham. The butcher did what we asked and we got the cuts we wanted. The pig was around 100kg live weight and produced a lot of pork, we still have a joint left in the freezer just over a year later. We also took the pigs head, and another one or two from the others that weren't wanted, and made some brawn, and we were given the bones to make stock. The flavour is much better than the supermarket bought pork, even the organic pork doesn't have the same flavour as what nick managed to produce. If it wasn't that a friend much closer to home is raising a pig for us this year then I'd definitely be asking nick for another pig this year.

Now that we've got more sellers it'd be nice if people spread the word to family and friends....

And come on you poultry peeps, I'd imagine there's a huge market on here for well raised birds.
