Beefy Butchers Show Prime Cuts For Charity!

Cor,girls! Get a butcher's of these!

There's not a lot of dressing on the hunks of meat being displayed by fifteen prime British butchers - they have posed nude for a new beefcake calendar.

Rump,thighs and back are the order of the day for the macho models,who use prime cuts and pasties to hide their blood-red blushes.

Just like chops and cutlets,the chaps from a national butcher's guild,come in all forms,from the fatty to the lean and the young to the mature.

Devon butcher Stewart Hayman,who posed in a crown,clutching a sceptre,has just a rack of ribs to hide his own crown jewels.

He said he found it "slightly unnerving" when the flesh under inspection was his own!

"It was a new experience for me,but it was a lot of fun" he said today.

"There are so many serious things in the butchers' trade that it was good to do something that was a real laugh! We are all at least topless,but it is decent!"

Another shot shows family butcher Graham Reeve sitting with a Cornish pastie hiding his meat and two veg.

There's also Essex butcher Gordon Hepburn,chairman of the group,posing with a huge haggis.

The idea for the calendar came from the public relations firm which handles publicity for the group.

A spokesman said "The butchers in the guild are known for their quality of product,their standard of service and their hygiene etc.

"These are all worthy issues but they don't grab headlines!

"The idea is not to sell more meat but to bring the guild to the public eye."

Although the firm has yet to complete negotiations,it is likely that £1 from every calendar will go to a UK-based childrens charity.

The calendars go on display in member shops in November and will cost £7.50 each.
