I'd thought that it was because the poster was being sarcastic over the spelling of Newcastle on the OP's profile.

That being said, this is the funniest thread I have started reading for ages. I get offered those so I am feeling a tad paranoid about the mini pork pie and cream cake I had for lunch.0 -
I asked the "Newcastle" question as that's where I'm from.
As suggested, there are many Newcastle's and I was more interested to see if it was "my" Newcastle rather than the "Staffs" Newcastle.
I do know these particular W H Smiths well.

No problem, here's one from my last birthday party, just be honest.
Only a small cake as I had filled my face on Greggs slices.
Incidentally, Greggs originated from Gosforth.

Apparently St James Park is 33/1 to be renamed the Greggs Arena :rotfl:
