does it have to be 'barf' supplies or just raw meat and raw meaty bones? Luckily we found a (human) meat wholesaler who supplies our local butches and we get breast of lamb, whole rabbit, whole chicken or any chicken bits we want, chicken carcuss...etc etc...Try going into butchers and just tell them you are making stock or something, our meat wholesalers sells chicken carcuss etc to the catering trade cuz they make stocks / soups using them. Maybe you can get whole fresh fish when it is going cheap at the supermarket also and beef mince and lamb mince etc.

On this link you can also get cheap beef, lamb, tripe and chicken minces, I think they ship to anywhere in the country. You might wanna ask them.

Ive had my first drop off from Landywoods today with Louise's order that went up to Edinburgh and I have to say they are great value for money. I ordered 60 quids worth of food and it filled my chest freezer and the compartment above my American Fridge & the rest has been stuffed in the fridge. No room for human food!

Everyone is having problems storing it

My garden looked like a slaughterhouse yesterday... but Thankfully due to all the people who ordered being fantastic we managed to get it all sorted and in the right places for pick up and meet ups..

So all in all I think everyone is happy with their first order..

All I can say is THANK GOD for that

Thanks Luz and Mags.. (and Jane and Katrina and her FAB husband who stayed and helped me sort the order out!, Linda & Steve and their gorgeous Leonberger, Anne and Sheena)

I have one more ordered stored in my other freezer as the person who ordered it now can't pick it up until Tuesday!!

If anyone is interested in the "possible" next order can you let me know and I will store your email address in my "landywoods" list..

Just PM me your email addy

Thanks
Louise

Thanks Christine..

It certainly took quite a bit to get everyone together (I even got banned from a forum for asking if anyone wanted to order )

So far everyone seems happy so this makes me happy and also willing to do it again.

Mags.. I think everyone was shocked at how much food they actually got for their money.. But that can only be a good thing

I can imagine the work it took organising it L and can`t believe you getting banned how small minded

But just look how happy you all are & of course the dogs with lovely grub to munch & peeps with extra £££ in pocket
