When I bought the Christmas ham from Farmison, I was hoping to get high quality and a hassle-free cooking experience. It did say "Ready to cook" on the wrapping...so that's what I did. And we ended up with the saltiest Christmas ham I've ever tasted. It was so bad that it burnt in the mouth. The outer parts of the ham were not even possible to eat, and the inner part of it I've frozen. I might be able to replace bacon with that bit of the ham. But it did arrive on time, it was packed properly, so I have no complaints about that. It would've been helpful with some directions regarding soaking the ham in cold water before cooking it to get rid of all that salt though.
