How long for a leg of lamb?

[Leander]

I'm just about to cook a leg of lamb, its about 2 kg how long should i cook it for?

Cooked one yesterday for exactly 2 hours on 180. We like it a bit pink tho, so you may want to check it at 2 hours to see if its ok for you.

180 degrees, 20 mins per pound, plus 20 mins..... so

1 hour, 40 mins (should be a bit pink in the middle, if you want it darker, cook for an extra 20 mins)

depends on teh age of the lamb.

A newborn lamb would probably be about 8 inches long.

An Old lamb maybe 16 inches?

thanks will check after 2hrs i dont like pink meat so maybe a bit longer.

oh MamaG, such wit!!!!

Ther is always one MamaG

You soppy moo, MamaG!

sorry

I'm incredibly childish today!

I know what you mean, I sometimes get this overwelming desire to post really inappropriate notes on all the threads with silly titles!

Im not brave enough to post i just giggle to myself like some sad loon

oh you should, its funny, i do it often

but what if you offend someone?

I mean irreversibly offend them?

then you say sorry of course!

I wouldn't post something nasty. Although i di once answer "yes" to loads of AIBU threads without reaidng htemn and had to backtrack wildly later!!

oh no have I offended you Squonk?!

I've never upset anyone, but one I did it to, clearly thought I was being very childish and I could just tell in her response to me that she was tutting and shaking her head!

you haven't offended me, mamaG

I just don't quite have the confidence to actually put what I sometimes want to. Because I know that what I'm wanting to post is just because I find it funny

squonk feel free to post on my weird ponce thread hehehe

I never take offence

snigger at pcc, i feel that too sometimes

Thats the problem isn't it? Just because you think its funny, other people might not. My one was 'Has anyone been to see a chiropractor with a bad back?' I fort the urge all day, but in the end I just has to reply - 'well, if he's got a bad back, he can't be very good then, can he!' Now, at the time, I thought it was funny and even I'm not that impressed now

I would have laughed at that

I would have laughed at that, but would never have had the nerve to post it, in case the op came back at me to say that she was in desperate need of some advice, not frivolity.....

Of course, if the op did come back like that, it would just show she didn't have a sense of humour.
