160,000 Turkeys
 
I got thinking about those 160,00 turkeys that have just been 'culled' and are in the process of being incinerated

According to the British Turkey Organisation (www.britishturkey.co.uk :lol: ) the average weight of a turkey is 12 lbs

So I reckon that's somewhere in the region of 960 tons just gone up in smoke :shock:

In the immortal words of Blackadder - Clucking Bell :smt117

(Not So) Interesting Fact of the Day:

The Portuguese word for "Turkey" is Peru.

Turkey (country) = Turquia
Turkey (bird) = Peru
Peru (country) = Peru

Here, hope that settles it!

So when you're in Turquia, just before Christmas, preparing a traditional British Christmas meal, with your Peruvian friend, do they get offended when you ask them to help you "stuff Peru"?

I really don't know, but I suspect he'd tell me to go stuff some Hawaiian island or something! :lol:
