Had these a few times.
'the gurt licker' = massive beast of a pasty

only thing i can manage from Greggs is the bean melt or the bacon, cheese savoury.
the sausage rolls & pasties have absolutely no taste, just bland pastry.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

I don't know why, but I "LOL-ed" at the end of your sentence; I suppose because of its unexpected turn.

Incidentally (and no doubt uninterestingly) my aged uncle lives in Callington and he worked at the Ginsters factory for many years. I think he ate the products because staff got hold of them for next-to-nothing, but he much preferred a fresh pasty from an independent baker.

Ginsters are disowned by everyone living in Cornwall as an abomination and exploitation. You won't find them being sold in Cornwall. All the production is transported up country. They are truly awful.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

My neighbour goes holidaying in Cornwall most years and he always brings me back some genuine locally made pasties and they are delicious

My Dad was evacuated to Redruth during the war and afterwards stayed in touch with the family he was lucky enough to have been sent to.

Old Mrs Webb made the best pasty I've ever tasted. Probably the best thing I've ever tasted. It would be my request for my last meal if I was on death row. She passed her recipe on to my Mum and she then made the best pasties I'd ever tasted.

Sadly, neither Mrs Webb nor my Mum are with us any longer and the recipe that was kept in the kitchen cupboard has been lost for ever. Whenever I get the chance I try a real Cornish pasty but nothing's ever quite matched up with Mrs Webb's.

Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

There is a Scottish version called a Bridie. Not the same because they only have steak mince, sometimes onion too, the mass produced ones are a bit hit and miss but when butchers make them they are usually very good.
