    Mouth watering, "almost" envious, cannot got good lamb in England. Will have to fallback to this
    😎

    You can, but you have to pay a shoulder and a leg for it πŸ™‚

    You guys are clearly based too close to London.  You can get good lamb at a sensible price in England as long as you are far enough from there.  Perhaps the distance should be measured from Islington rather from the city.

    Based in London, Tom. The last time I bought fresh Welsh lamb was Easter this year, in Wales, from a Welsh butcher, and it was roughly 2.5x the cost of the frozen NZ stuff.

    In my mind there is only one proper lamb and that is the Icelandic lamb, "slightly" more expensive than any other potential alternatives. Got a mate which is a local butcher looking into this but the amount of £££ slightly taints the picture

    BTW, had an Italian ex pizza chief over and he said that my pizzas were the best he had ever tried πŸ˜€

    Steve, https://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/1878981/How-can-I-create-a-report-from-the-supplied-table has PHI posted, in some cases it looks like they tried to de-identify, but I can clearly see age/gender and find a real doctor's name. Please scrub that post.

    Says this isn't real. Take them at their word. Might be randomized names/PII

    GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Why did it have to happen during our month end process?

    Who has the pork-chop launcher? I need to borrow it and about five tons of frozen chops.

    There may not be any true PII in there but much of the data is not randomized. The doctors names all appear to be real. And the hospital in "Boston" was pretty to find by the address on Brockton, MA. But the actual patient info appears to be pretty cleaned.

    I give up. Is what I asked so hard?

    Fortunately I'm going to be mostly offline for the next couple days, giving training in Cape Town
    Maybe something will have materialised by the time I get home.

    Apparently so according to the information...

    I could swear I saw the steam coming out of Gails' ears in her last reply to this person...
