If I may be so bold as to introduce the new improved Greggs easy open thread!

If the technological people can make the original Greggs thread into two threads, that means the material is readily available, and the later one of them can continue.
It is sometimes necessary to refer to such matters as the part played by the Traveling Wilburys in the Greggs saga. |

You may face a Negative Reality Inversion.
This combined with the effects of pasty filling should the threads cross would cause a rupture in the temporal fabric of the time continuim!
In other words, no. |

I think that the posters have decided for themselves which Gregg thread to go on

Sorry about this ... I don't usually bother with LTNS as he's barking mad anyway.

I agree.
It's important to get the apostrophe right.
There is a difference between
It's breeding
and
Its breeding.
The first one suggests that a creature is in the process of producing more creatures.
The second one - possessive - is about the quality of the creature if breeding is a noun; and also if it is an adjective:
Its breeding habits.

What is a sticky topic?
anyway, look how these two Greggs topics thrive. There is clearly a pent-up demand for the mega one. It cannot be airbrushed from history. |

It means it stays on the very top all the time.
(Look at the very first thread by livewire on this Local News section)
But since it is a over full thread (which is hard to enter)
that makes no sense. |

| Yes, well, the mega Greggs thread should at least be a sticky, a monument to collaborative effort. |

| Consider it done. As for splitting it, I will see what can be done but do not hold out much hope. |

| The numbers of reads of the original Greggs thread goes up, so people must be able to get through to it with some persistence. A bit like gnawing through a pasty. |
