no inuendo about muttonchops the whiskers on the side of the face looked had the same shape as what in this county is called a baby loin lambchop..

Who was it/ where was it(which thread) the history of frozen NZ lamb to England? what year was it?
certainly, in the 1860's mutton was all the rage.. women's dresses came with leg 'o mutton sleeves, men had mutton chop whiskers.. society ladies wore coats with mutton trim.
(not the creamy white shearling coat that were popular here 15 years ago, but, a fur like mutton skin, with curly, (rather than the normal kinky) nap, in black. but to make it la de da, it was mouton

(mutton, i think rhymes with button, mouton, with crouton)
