Clearly we lived like kings in late December. We had a catering tray of goodie given which had found their way to a food bank but were only a day from their ‘End of life’ date. How Veal, Venison and Aberdeen Angus end up at a food bank is anybodies guess. But gift horses mouths are to be left well shut!
