Quick! The this-turkey-has-to-be-won-by-Monday-morning giveaway!

It's a sooper, sooper-quick giveaway!

~ GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED ~


You see this fabulous collection of Christmas goodies - and yes, that does include a Turkey, all 4.5kg-5.5kg of it, stuffing, mince pies and dessert wine - well get entering via the Rafflecopter widget below and who knows?  It could be yours!

So when I say it's an enormous box - it's an enormous box!
I can 100% recommend the Turkey - one from Seldom Seen Farm - as I have also taken delivery of one of these enormous boxes full of loveliness.  I roasted the Turkey yesterday and boy oh boy, but it is fabulous!  So tender and moist - beautiful.

The mince pies are divine!  So crumbly with a hint of almond or vanilla that just makes them so special.

You can either follow Marco Pierre White's recipe for Knorr - his Roast Turkey with Orange and Smokey Bacon Baste - which I did and is lovely!

Or you can use the ingredients to make your own Christmas recipe, whilst quaffing the beautiful wine from Tenterden vineyards and munching on gorgeous mince pies.

Well, it would solve the quandary of what to have at Christmas, now wouldn't it?

There are two things to note before you enter.  First is that you absolutely HAVE to be available to take delivery on the 21st December.  If you're going to be away on that day, don't enter because the delivery date can't be changed.

Secondly, if you are resident anywhere but in England, Wales, Scotland or Ireland, again, please do not enter.  The box contains foodstuffs which although packed with cold bags, will not sustain a safe temperature for delivery abroad.

I really am going to have to think of a competition prize for all you folks who hail from foreign fields!

The competition has now closed - but Jo Hutchinson was the lucky winner!  Congratulations, Jo!

    1. Oh Ali, shame on you! LOL *giggle* The trouble is, once these Mums start, it's very difficult to convince them to let you have a go, isn't it? That sounds a lovely idea - good luck!

    1. Heyo House Tenant Mab! If you can be sure she will be available to receive the box on the 21st, by all means enter on her behalf. If you win, you'll have to let me have her email address and home address - so have a think about whether she'll be okay about that, too. :)

    1. I'm trying furiously to decide whether I'm supposed to know who "M" is - but I've given up! It sounds as though it would be a lovely home for the giveaway box, anyway - so good luck! :)

    1. How lovely! :) I wish my Mum would let us do that, but it's her kitchen and that's the way it will stay. LOL So she & my Dad are going to my brother for Christmas day and to us for Boxing day. LOL
