Funny how us lot in the southeast pay thru the nose for everything! What you lot are saying makes a lot of sense, even you robert!  Spoke to my local butcher, and he said after christmas he would be more than happy for me to come in and watch whilst they butcher a lamb or pig. FOR FREE! So it looks like the kind folk of cranbrook have sorted the prob for me. Thanks people

if uv cut up rabbits and chooks etc, cutting up a pig is no different. teaches u sooo much when u do it yourself. it is time consuming tho if ur not a pro...Delilah was 178kg....but i enjoyed it....and makes me look at the finishers in a different way...if ur eating it yourself, just give it a go. just understand the different parts of the body so u know how they are too be cooked so u can label it before u freeze it.
