Scary Bear Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Maybe he’s admitted he has a problem and is getting treatment. Mince pie addiction is admittedly rare, but I feel we need to be understanding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Not a mince pie fan but had one yesterday from Stephens Bakery in the Kingdom of Fife. Pretty decent. Lovely pastry (possibly borrowed from the bridies) and a surprisingly fresh and orange juice filling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
