ALERT: Pasty Updates

Big news today.

I found myself in a strange shop. It looked like Greggs and Sayers, but it was called "Cooplands".

I strolled up to their counter. There. Central. "Christmas Pasty".

I sneered. I looked for something more familiar. No sausage and bean pasty. Not even a baked bean pasty. The one remaining meat and potato pasty didn't look great. I pondered for a minute, before I could detect annoyance behind me for holding up the queue.

Curiosity got the better of me. "What's in a Christmas Pasty?"

Well, my vocabulary doesn't possess the superlatives to describe just how outrageous this pasty was.

I don't say this lightly.

It destroyed anything Greggs or Sayers have ever produced.

Find this mythical shop called 'Cooplands'. Purchase the 'Christmas Pasty'.

Thank me later.
Tbf, Greggs festive bake is absolutely amazing!

Curious to try this take on it
 
Coincidentally… I’ve just got back from Iceland (the shop) and whilst there I picked up a sausage and onion slice … not seen this before so chucked it in the basket, will report back tomorrow after my lunch
 

I also know how this place works.. if I hadn’t clarified it some knobhead would have piped up with an unfunny line like “all the way to Iceland for a pastry”


See exhibit A above 😂😂
 
I normally only have a very light lunch. Today 2 mates (ok ... all of them) came around and we went to my local pub. It ain't cheap ... 20 notes for pie and chips ... but WHAT a pie. Steak and ale - created and baked in house. I looked around expecting to see Desperate Dan somewhere. It finished me.

I'll be sleeping off the rest of this day. Sniff it, non-retired people.
