This article explains why we shall not see dolphins working in Greggs. They would not find it stimulating enough (and the food not as good as they can get elsewhere).

Beware of the pasties, this article says, as exercise might not get rid of weight.

A Blog from a Yank Site
is that all you can do.

Meanwhile 2 Danish Apple
are just £1.21 at Greggs.

Why does LTNS bang on about the Yanks but let the Danes have a monopoly on apples? Rank hypocrisy.

I agree that it's a good idea to avoid pastry most of the time.

Still no Greggs in Kemp Town, thank goodness.

Can Greggs' official spokesman LTNS explain why the store is not taking part in National Nachos Day (Nov 6)?

Of Course Dingo
Greggs is a Great English Company
doing well as they keep up to date
and give Value for Money
unlike Subway or McD.


Sign Of The Times.

But this report was on the EVIL BBC! How can you possibly believe it?

Can someone post up a reputable story, from say, Sky News.

Below the BBC piece several nutritionists say that Greggs is bad.

It is food for "blokes" others say.

This article shows entertainingly that pigs are far too intelligent and interesting to be wasted inside a pasty at Greggs.

Yes Pigs can be pets
but in Industrial Farms
no pets are permitted.

Greggs gives you Value for money
that is what the Public need in this
New Labour Depression.

Anubis has been very brave recently, and fair. Now I will admit to having eaten a hot cheese & onion pastie from our local Greggs a few days ago when shopping with my daughter (she led me astray!). It was quite greasy but hot and very tasty on a cold day in town, fair do`s. I still wouldn`t touch a meat-mix pastie from there or anywhere else though! I like to know what I`m eating, meat-wise, and how long it`s been kept hot, etc.

Row faster, slaves! Caesar wants to waterski!

Has Fluffy Sheep established what might be in the pastry of a Greggs pasty? As the firm is based in Newcastle, can we be sure that it doex not reach for the pack of lard at every opportunity?

As the former Chairman of Asda is now running ITV presumably there will be an increase in documentaries about such things as... pasties. Out with wildlife, no more lions and hippos, but a fearless stalking of virulent fodder along the perilous terrain that is the London Road, Brighton.

When Greggs goes ahead with this system of using robots as staff in its shops, will they be programmed to say "hi, long time no see!" if iris recogniotion is part of the set-up?

Word here is that Greggs could be spreading along Western Road if it takes over some Thresher shops. Horrible.
