| El Tee, I recently had a Greggs Cheese and Onion pasty which I enjoyed immensley (much to Miriam' disgust), and hope to repeat the experience, perhaps with a different filling, but I have to ask this question - are you on a commission? |

It looks, though, as LTNS has had another nibble at the cat's right ear while waiting for Greggs to open. |

No CV but have found some extracts from a school report.
St Greggs Academy
School Report:
Pupil: LTNS
English: Continues to use strange style of grammar.
Maths: Do the!
History: Has a tendency to overstate the FACTS
Art: Original work is hard to find but very good with scissors and glue.
Physics: Cannot help thinking he is a few electrons short of an atom.
Domestic Science: Pasty and tea fetish!
Commerce: Strange attraction to American corporations.
Politics: Sits in the corner and mumbles about illegal wars and evil?
Media & I.T.: Tries very hard.
Local Affairs: Likes life in the city.
Head Master’s comment:
He is not the Messiah, just a very naughty boy.

Michael Darrington comments here the other day on Greggs and the state of the world, and is pictured with some tongs and gooey-looking cakes.
Seems that anybody who bought Greggs shares in 1984 would have seen the value go up fortyfold.
Which I suppose is better than putting one's money in the pasties themselves. The canny have, then, let LTNS swell their coffers.

Could LTNS be a shareholder?
This would explain everything.
He is urging everybody to buy things there while he sits at home and uses the annual dividends to enjoy gourmet produce. |

you keep going round in circles
this was all asked on the Original thread.
Tetley Tea at 80p with Real Milk
is the best bargain in Brighton/Hove.
This helps people save money.

LT, are you the polite young chap with dark hair who served Miriam and I lunchtime, with a sausage and bean melt pasty (me), and a chicken pasty (Mim)? We thought he was a bit young to be you, but I said perhaps you kid us all and you have a Blackberry hidden on your person to keep you in touch with the outer world.
I quite enjoyed my pasty, but Mim was not imppressed with hers - no chicken apparently; ergo it was an an alleged chicken pasty.  Serves her right she could have had a buy two of the same for £2 and had the same as me

Pel
I have nothing to do with that branch.
I have confirmed that on the Original thread
so you are also going in circles.
That product error would have been changed
if you had time. |

Pel ... next time girl ... you can WALK back!
And anyway, that young man wasn't polite - he wasn't rude I'll grant you but that was only because he was too busy being surly! |

Aha!!!! How did you know to which branch I was referring?
Mim also asked if I wanted an 80p cup of tea, but one can have too much of a good thing, so I sadly declined her offer |

| The only way Pel 'dragged' me into that store was because she threatened to streak down the length of London Road if I didn't! |

| With these extra customers it sounds as if the share price could edge upwards again. |

Oh definitely ... with both Pel and I in there we doubled the number of people in the store and that is counting the staff! |

Being cornered behaind a counter packed with such delectable products must have been quite daunting for the staff!
Luckily they are well trained in the Marshal Baguette Arts! |
