4.1 For certain goods from our butcher and fishmonger, additional preparation services will be offered. For example, you will be able to request on the website whether you would like the head and tail of a fish to be removed or for a rack of lamb to be cut into cutlets.

5 CHANGES TO PRODUCT INFORMATION

5.1 While care has been taken in preparing the summary product information (in particular the “Other Information” section) on the website for goods from our butcher and fishmonger, you should note that such information may change between the time you place your order on the website and the time your order is delivered (in this regard we rely on our suppliers to tell us of any changes in a timely manner so we can update our website). For example, as all meat products from our butcher and fish products from our fishmonger are naturally farmed, there may be occasions when due to weather conditions, we may need to source from alternative approved sources (and hence the product origin may change). Therefore, you need to check the website for details if you do require the most up-to-date product information following delivery of your order.
