A big thick ignoramous of a turkey cannot be cooked evenly. There is no other animal that comes 12 or 14 pound weighr that youd fuck into the oven in its natural form.
I wouldnt even cook a chicken that way as it’s a plain stupid and lazy thing to do.
Not even with the 500 degree oven?

There is no contraption that will evenly cook a 14 pound animal in its natural state. Not even my famed 300 degree oven.
I’d always spatchcock my chickens.
one thing about Lagunas is you can really learn about an engine as they give so much trouble
the alternator fail caught me- i had many instances where car wouldnt start but battery was giving 14V DC on the DVM - a jump and off we’d go - problem was Alternatiir just wasnt holding charge
saw a few mechanics who told me if i had failing alternator car would die a few mins after a jump and it wasnt an alternatior issue- with laguna alternator fails appear to be more progressive
she died one day and by time alternator came out crankshaft pulley was misaligned and then timing belt followed,
bottom line : dont mess with alternators - theyll fuck your car
I had a 95 Laguna. The engine rotted. Seriously

Them Laguna’s although comfortable motors to drive are probably the biggest heap of shit ever mass produced.

Have heard plenty of issues with two neighbours in Ciios off 14 & 15 reg
All Renaults are grand if your driving on lovely smooth roads, drive them on rough rural ( Ireland ) roads and you’ll soon be leaking money at an alarming rate.

Christmas tree is up, chaps.
I ordered a “decorated” tree from Woodies a few weeks ago. It was meant to take 3-5 working days for delivery but it belatedly arrived on Saturday.
It’s along the lines of this…
…and our entire reasoning for ordering the “decorated” tree was that it wouldn’t need us to do anything.
Imagine my horror when I opened the box this evening (3 day delay due to @steamboatsam ‘s nuptials) to find that it wasn’t an already decorated tree in bubble wrap or whatever.
Instead it consisted of 4 separate tree parts which needed to be attached and a separate box which contained lights, baubles and what not. I therefore had to painstakingly put the baubles on the tree.
It was an absolute disgrace. Had I known I would have gotten a man in to do this menial work.

Boned and rolled turkey in Casa del Spidey this year. No time for muldoon ham. Mrs Spidey does an outrageous sausage stuffing that fills the pork gap.

Can’t see the normal riders that they’d have from that screen shot but I’d imagine they’d have something like “image for illustration purposes, requires assembly”
So probably no, but if there’s no caveats then he should get onto the CCPC. And get the tree from Argos rather than Woodies.
