    On a lighter note, is it just me who when I have a steak bake etc...still find small bits of pastry stuck to my clothing hours after eating them.

    YES! Very annoying.

    But the Steak Bakes themselves are delicious.

    I've never been in a Greggs. I always think their branding makes the shops look like travel agents. It was years before I realised they sold food (well, vaguely edible things anyway).

    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'

    call me naive but isn't the term 'asian' used to encompass all those 4 billion or so people from asia, 48 different counties and however many different religions.

    surely using 'asian' in the context of requiring a certain type of food befitting their beliefs makes no sense.
    Come on, it's not rocket surgery is it?

    The point I was trying to make. Slightly.

    But they're from countries I think. ;)
