Be still my beating heart!!

A festival celebrating mankinds crowning glory. Forget space travel, the Internet, or nuclear power, nothing rivers the genius of sticking stuff between 2 pieces of pastry

Entering the pie eating competition binners? Thought you were a faithful Gregg's man though.

I'm completely mercenary. Any pie is fair game! Did you know that in the north west of England you're never more than 10 yards from a Greggs? .

What sort of notice is this?

Just got back from a (road) ride and instead I could have been [s]gorging myself[/s] carb loading in preparation for tomorrows pub ride.

Just waddled back.

The chicken & ham with black peas was very nice, but a bit expensive.
A lovely bouquet, redolent of lazy summer afternoons.

The scotch pie was a triumph.
A cheeky little number with a strong, peppery finish.

Nice display of hooters too.
