Didn't you try Curry's ?

Everytime I've been in there to buy something its either not in stock or they'll order it in for you. Their stockroom must be piled high with fvcking fresh air.

There's a well known character posting on here who's got a gap between his ears full of fresh air.

Went into Argos, tapped into the computer, nowt, maybe I just fekd up.
Anyway when I got home I found on next to the tv, forgot I had one, every cloud.

I've got loads of them and I've never bought one in my life. Every new phone or tablet comes with one so they've just accumulated over the years and live in a box in our spare bedroom. Recently, I've replaced some of our twin gang 13 Amp sockets with ones that have 2 USB sockets built in so don't even need a separate charger in some of our rooms now. Great in the kitchen as there's so many appliances that it was difficult to find a socket not in use!

I've always found Tom Whitehouse in the market to have most of the odd electrical bits I need and reasonably priced too.

Greggs is still a joke.
I went into Swansea earlier today and made a mistake I made 7 years ago in Newcastle, I bought a corned beef past .....more potato than corned beef and £1.70
It's a f*****g joke especially in this day and age when money is tight.

P.S. why are there so many empty reatil outlets in the city?
Kingsway looks terrible

The mistake you made Dicky was not going for a Steak Bake and a coffee. Before 11 the bacon and sausage bap and coffee option is decent.

I believe they are no longer trading. Well I think so, could be wrong, haven't been in there for a while, that's what I've heard

I think all new builds now come the USB wall sockets. You can never have enough.
Next time I need one, I'll give you a shout

Had a pie from Swansea market recently. The guy said he had exclusivity for some company in Port Talbot. It was gorgeous.
Also had a couple of pies fro Aldi earlier this week from their specialty range - also gorgeous.
Don't go to Greggs anymore as their corned beef pasties have gone from a pound to £1.70 in less than a couple of years (unless I'm in Barry where they have a discount shop.)

Tesco used to make the best homemade pies, but they stopped doing them years ago.. I do like a balti pie, especially one's you can get up north, and a Cornish pasty in Cornwall, but haven't been in either area for some time.. the last pies I ate were from Jenkins and Gregg's, and they were poor pies and very small and filling not great, Jenkins pasties beats Gregg's all day long

The pies served in a cafe in Gorseinon way back in the day , steamed , the pastry was a bit soggy but the content was bursting through the sides , seem to remember an Italian family ran the place .

Nothing has compared to the taste of that first humble pie , even now I still challenge what I buy today against that benchmark , my first pie eating experince , no contest .

Have read about a small shop/producer in Taibach , might give them a try next .

Recommended it was, by a mate. Try the old fray bentos Tim, they’re superb. Usually always avoided I found myself throwing one in my basket on my next visit to the supermarket.

One evening, craving stodge, I wacked it in the oven and retired to the sofa with a glass of wine. 30 mins or so went by and I shuffled off to the kitchen to check on the evenings main event.

Well I couldn’t believe my eyes when I opened the oven. I never thought the pastry top would rise to the point it resembled an oversized beret and the filling looked and tasted like a aged cow pat.

It’s a no from me

2nd hand? Are they returns? Regurgitated?
Best pies were Lewis’s from the bakery in the Sandfields many years ago.

I think I read somewhere that the stall had reopened under a different name but sold similar stuff, not certain though.
