More nonsense from the Mail. I doubt whether they have actually talked to anyone about this but no-one will be angry about Greggs opening here. Bemusement is much more likely.

Rowes and Warrens, the two bakeries mentioned are both plant bakeries and, whilst not that highly regarded by the locals, they are still a huge improvement on Greggs, which produces a bland, unexciting range of mass-produced nothingness. I think they are terrible and would only ever choose them if there wasn't another choice within a fair distance. Which there is in Truro. There are some much better, smaller, local producers which are favoured by the locals.

Whoever at Greggs took this decision doesn't understand the local market at all. In my opinion it will close very quickly.

Untrue.

You are given a lovely welcome here, either as a visitor or a new resident, by almost all of the local people who are amongst the kindest I have ever known.

Second home owners, who use their properties for only a few weeks a year, less so as some coastal villages are now almost deserted in the winter and local young people priced out of even quite small cottages. That though is not unique to Cornwall.

I'm excited for Cornwall's future of enrichment.

I will be watching with fascination.

You are so out of touch. There is a great deal happening here.

Lithium mining is planned. Newquay airport is a space hub.

The Fens are a backwater in comparison, where the most exciting things are the frozen chip factory and the road that takes you to Cambridge.

You said something quite funny....It only took a few years, still tips hat on that one.

Maybe there isn’t a shortage of cash in Cornwall. VFM is what it’s about. Compare the market and see where you get more for your fiver. Greggs or the posh baker.
