I'm fairly sure the bread can't be more expensive than the £2.25 bread roll I had at sissinghurst yesterday... all it had was a bit of tuna and mayonnaise on it... what a rip off. Was going to eat in the restaurant, but someone decided to make the soup beetroot and red onion... dear me... 'orid.
Oh yeah, in terms of cake, we had some St Clements cake yesterday... enough calories to fuel a battleship... yummy.
Em, oh yeah... bread being more expensive. Hmph. not as expensive as the plumber we've called out to fix the taps in the bathroom.
Er... am I going to say anything remotely on topic in this topic. Hmph. 10% extra on bread doesn't affect us much, but there were major problems in the third world in 2007 when price rose the same amount, due to the fact that when you earn a couple of pounds a day, wheat rising so much prices you out of one of the staple foods.“The ideas of debtor and creditor as to what constitutes a good time never coincide.”

5p on a loaf. They'll be screams on the Old Style board but not a lot apart from that0

Blimey, I had better take out a second mortgage to keep bread on the table I guess. This could bankrupt us.0

Hah spooky, I did a day's work up there for charity 2 weeks ago (assume you're talking about the castle and gardens).
All the veg and salad is grown in the garden, self sustainance and all that, hence the prices I guess

I think we are being conditioned into accepting the rise when it comes and it will be far more than 5p on a loaf. Consider rice 2 or 3 years ago. It almost tripled in price over a few months and has not gone down since.0
