Yorkies Pies

[jacko 8,907]

Usually buy a few pork pies, sausage rolls, Scotch eggs  and such from BigCX.. nice lunchtime snack. But last Sunday, just a few leftovers. Today nothing, usual location full of garlic bread. Had a search but not found elsewhere. Have they moved, BigC dropped them or Yorlies packed in? FBWY...?

Found them.... in the tall cabinet fridges near all the frozen stuff. Damned supermarkets moving stuff about. Now a nice big Cornish pasty planned for lunch tomorrow. Just what a growing man needs.. growing old and fat that is.

Sorry cannot add to the topic. I can however mention that last year I asked you about Yorkshire Tea. 

Well luck was on my side. A Leeds lad heading home presented me with all the YT that he had left and yes, its good. 

I was running short of my Kenya Bold and this filled to gap very well.

A few UK items did appear on the Big C shelves a few months back. Yorkshire Tea for one, also PG Tips (the one that the monkeys drink), Heinz Salad Cream, Batchelor's Mushy Peas and some soups and cordial drink and others items. Sadly these things don't seem to last, ie they won't be there the following month... but who knows. The Pantry in Jomtien is out of my way somewhat.

English breakfast sausages are in the deep freeze on Klang,along with Warburton's crumpets muffins and a white sliced! There was some pies and beef wellington but I don't have a oven or air fryer.

Yeh, I found the Warburton's crumpets last Sunday and have a pack in my fridge now.  My searching for the Yorkies pies had that compensation.

There is a section of Warburtons crumpets and Farm bread in the freezers also at Big C Sukhumvit I saw the Yorkers stuff once but never again.

Darn, no sigh of crumpets in the freezer Sunday.... any idea if out of stock or simply relocated?

I will not be making my own but thanks..... no oven!

No sign of them in the far corner past the bread.......where I found them before...... had a look in the long row of freezers too, usually can't see in them because of condensation. I enjoyed the last batch, as a lunchtime snack with cream cheese (Philly) on them.

You don't need an oven, thick bottom frying pan and stainless steel crumpet rings.

Been out of stock a good few weeks now just waiting for the next boat to come in 😊

No real idea what or who Yorkies are. Seems however that it's only for real men.
Having said that, I did photograph the mug in an op_shop!

Warbies bread in there now, but check out the chest freezers near the check out tills, for frozen crumpets and steak and kidney pies!
