Off to the vet. That'll be a check up and vaccinations. £300 should cover it. :ffs:
I quite like Wenzel's sausage rolls. A step up from Greggs imoQuote:

Have you had the Fortnum & Mason's wons? Absolutely spectacular. Packed full of meat*Quote:

Pretty much the same in the south now.Quote:

Why on earth would one go to Fortnum & Mason and buy sausage rolls?Quote:

There you are, you see? The softness is very much part of the appeal of Greggs efforts for me.Quote:

It's clear to me that we look for different things in a sausage roll. Given which, I shall bid you good day.Quote:

:nod: and the sauces are not right. Or the bread is separate so it's cold :-(Quote:

I'll have some chips but rice no thanks.
:kebab:
They are most definitely pork. We have one close to home and aways good to pick one up if hungover, on the way to the tube station
They make a smashing hot meatball wrap imo
Because it is a part of Rich's Little Lord Fauntelroy act.Quote:
