;D. Are you still allowed them?  I had a mixed grill last night, with DR pave rump, Cumberland sausages, and bacon.  That was the last of the bacon, and it's not on offer at the moment.  :(

Them, yes, bacon, no. :( You might want to try the beef or steak & kidney pies, btw.

I've got four packs of the S&K in the freezer, but I didn't realise it didn't come in a pie.  ::)
