Indeed wmo, the whole chicken is more satisfying. Unfortunately, unlike a lovely ewe, they self destruct and leave a mess for the housekeeper to deal with post event.
While never look a gift chicken in the beak I say, a willing ruminant beats a Rhode Island Red every time. A Nora Jones CD playing softly in the background, a bottle of Muscatel, donning rubber boots and velcro gloves, then let loose the lanolin...
Sorry I digress, how about that MDMN eh!!! This is about a mangy penny play after all and not a zoological Dr. Phil, or cloven hoof Masters and Johnson.
