Is putting your muff in a microwave a new form of treatment for STDs?

Surprised no-one's mentioned this so far - Greggs the musical: Seven bridies for seven brothers

Hey big boy ever tasted the humungus giant chocolate chip muffins out of Costco in Springburn. Swear to God they are better than Kissing. Or what about the deliciuosly delectable £6.00 chocolate fudge cake,better than a wet dream. Kid you not, then there is there Danish pastrys . My lips are dribbling as I speak.

Actually I'm not so keen on the chocolate muffins in Costco - I'm much more partial to a Tesco one. Costco gets the vote for size, no contest, but the chocolate chips just taste wrong. Sort of, dry perhaps. I can't quite describe it.

Anything tastes great once you've added some Queen's Park cafe ice cream to it. Well, except and old pair of smell socks perhaps.

The best bit about Greggs is paying with a ten pound note and hearing the delightful cry of "TEN IN!!!!!" as your money is placed in the till. It makes me feel all rich and fancy.[/b]

I'm guessing you go to Greggs for the banter as well as the steak bakes then?

I wonder if any of them are still on the go....

I think there's one at Finnieston?

That would be the one on St. Vincent St. opposite the flats iirc.

to paraphrase peter kay its not too good when thay say that and the shop is full of neds, calculating that you have at least £8.73 in change on you, and you end up lying on the pavement covered in puff pastry and tomato soup

I have just been in greggs maryhill (shopping centre) and was disappointed with the lack of ten in banter.

However, the young lady behind the counter made up for it by tipping a cup of tomato soup all over the man in front of me!

I was at Greggs today too and was also disappointed. To add to that I then met a friend who was also disappointed with her Greggs. What's going on? I had a Tuna and Mayo sandwich which really does need to be renamed to Tuna in Mayo. Then the follow up Yum Yum just had far too much icing.

I would kill for a yum yum right now.

I can report that greggs maryhill had run out of tuna crunch and that the sultana cakes have "no come back in yit".

What with all the chat about Greggs etc.. I'm surprised that no one has not mentioned Henry Healy's thus far!
Ye dinae get a roll n hasslet at thon poncy Greggs, with all their "Cajun Chicken" guff, wheres the hasslet?

btw...If your looking for some "Ten In" action then the lassies in Healys on Dundas Street always shout "TEN IN", never fails.
Gie the lassies a laugh by shouting Ten Out prior to the Ten In getting aired.

I'm intrigued... what makes the tuna crunch? At school it was usually onions or cafe wummin's fingernails....

by **mooshimooshisan** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 3:40 pm

not sure, but it seems to be v popular amongst the hungry workers/dole scroungers/junkies of maryhill.. the 5 people in front of me all asked for it.

puts me in mind of the special stuff from league o gentlemen...
