…I watched a very funny Garron Noone vid a few days ago, I don’t know if you’re familiar with him…anyway, his ‘rant’ was a Beef Wellington one and specifically the Marks and Spencer Christmas range one, which is £195…I wish I could post the vid but for some reason YouTube won’t show me it/I would have to sign in, which I’m not able to…but this is the Garron offending beef wellington…

I can get TWO of the same £1 Iceland meals and pop them on one plate and there's plenty to eat.

£2, all you need.

Easy to prepare one yourself on christmas eve, and cook on Christmas day.

Probably feed everybody for 20 quid

30 quid are they joking? And it only feeds 2. Imagine accidently burning it in the oven! Yikes
