Trixie the luckiest turkey in the land
Trixie the turkey was destined for the dinner table at St Mary’s Nursing Home, Galway City, and was supposed to be the centrepiece of the Christmas Day feast for residents and staff.
But fate and a broken wing intervened to save Trixie from the Christmas chop. The reason for the reprieve is because Trixie was put on a course of antibiotics . . . and turkeys on meds cannot be eaten.
