Home deliver is a normal part of western society. My shopping arrives on a Saturday morning (with normally a few odd substitutions), Xmas presents arrive through out Nov/Dec and various items of clothing appear on my desk at work.
However, I've always felt a little odd about ordering food online but I recently found Donald Russell and I'm a bit of a convert. Not only are they 'appointed by HRH the Queen' but their meat is generally naturally reared so you know you are getting 'happy meat' as I like to call it.
Based in Aberdeenshire, they don't only do meat but seafood as well as ready-meals - which are the antithesis of those nasty chemical laden things you find in most high-street supermarkets. Glorious - in fact envy worthy - lasagna, chilli and fish pie.
Deserts are also available - in fact, you can buy your whole meal from Donald Russell and have a far more relaxing Sunday than you normally do. Orders over £80 are free on the UK mainland and order on a Tuesday for delivery on Friday.
What is the downside? Well, I suppose it isn't cheap. Almost £90 for - an admittedly huge - 2.5 Kg joint of beef fillet is not something that most of us can afford on a regular basis but for a special occasion like Easter? Well, lets just say it does serve 14 and it is rather good so why the hell not?
Try it
