Betfair will take over the Dublin city-centre butcher shop owned by Peter Byrne at 91 Lower Camden Street today, from where 150 Irish born and bred turkeys will be given to the first 150 members of the public who arrive at the premises from 12.30pm.

The free turkeys have a recommended retail price of €60 each.

Thought it might help those around Dublin today.

I foresee a Kenan and Kel-style situation whereby the turkeys are actually still alive. Hilarity ensues, etc.
