To make sure of juicy turkey push your hand in inside the skin and breast and then line the whole thing with bacon - also wrap the legs ..the bacon cooks and bastes the meat and the bacon ends up lovely and crispy to go with the sage and onion stuffing.

There is a meat packers on 475 who will source anything you want and kill all manner of beasts ...I can't remember what they are called but it's just south of the E-W road (I think it's 484 or something like that) It's about 100 yds south of the junction down a small track ...I know exactly how to get there but can't describe the route !! So just head north on 475 and if you see a light up ahead look out for the place on the left.
