More trouble for the London Road. Greggs is clearly not attracting more stores to open there.

And to think that LTNS told us that Aldi would be the icing on the Greggs cake.

Or is it cold feet that cannot be warmed by Greggs' soup or Tetley tea?

Good to see the store selling quality British foods at a good price.

1% of all profits going to a good cause

Having seen the Gregg cuppa go from 70p to 80p in a blink of an eye ... I'm surprised you can mention good value in reference to Greggs.

When the Mega Tesco is built

So a large multi-national company may help the area and local traders?

What you actually said was:

Daveb then asked whether: So a large multi-national company may help the area and local traders? to which your response was:

The way it reads at the moment you are claiming that a large multi-national company will help the area and local traders.

Thank you ... so kindly explain how it is that one area can, according to you, be helped by the arrival of a multi-national company and another area is threatened by the arrival of a multi-national company? Where is your logic?
