An opportunity has arisen for me to smoke a turkey for Christmas - how long would it take?

You'll need a hell of a lot of rizlas.

Damned if I know how you'll light it as well.

I'm with Olive.
Maybe you could get your hands on a hubble-bubble?

Makes a change from a pot roast

Just so long as he doesn't make a hash of it.

If turkey's were meant to smoke, they'd have a lum on their heid!

Smoker rental is one of those costs that tends to rise sharply at the festive season I believe.

Now, would that not be cheating Nick?
Have you not managed to get conversant with that smoker yet, or do you not have it any more?
BTW, I sent you a pm last night, or has that went up in smoke too?

Depends on what type of smoker you are commiting the beast to?
If its anything like Nick's one, you better start now and have it ready for christmas 09, other than that just hang it in the attic of the first diralict tenemant you come to, and let the nedds do the rest, as there was some good quality timber in some of those old buildings, giving great flavour.
The fire brigade will recover it for you when it is just about cooked.

Got your PM Eamonn . . . currently a bit knackered and seriously under the cosh at Oban High School, will gt back to you Thurs / Fri

Exam time Nick?

So ye must have died then Nick
Ah seem tae remember that before ye went aff oan yer Azores-girdling trip that I suggested ye could always head back tae Heartbreak High if ye needed to and "Over my Dead Body" came winging across the ether...

.
Rub it in why don't you?

Needs must to pay for the next Azores-girdling trip . . .

Back at the chalkface eh - or whiteboard nowadays. I'm still in the trade but not in schools and very glad to be out of it.

very glad to be out of it

I would like nothing better than to never darken the doors of any secondary school establishment again, but while the rest of my life can be conducted on a shoestring running even a small boat requires the odd injection of cash above the trickle supplied by a one man freelance web design business.

One day's guaranteed consultancy a week for a going concern of some slightly larger sort would be enough to ensure that I never had to approach the front again, and I can't help thinking there must be some organisation out there that has need of my ragamuffin bag of talents.

Anyway, dream over, game on - off to Oban
