There was a bit of a worry yesterday. The phone rang, or at least made beeping kind of sounds, and a well spoken Scots voice was on the other end. Clearly this was not a family member. No indeed, this was my butcher up in Forres. He was warning me the pies would be delivered late. Apparently, the regular 'Parcelpost' man was off and his order had not been collected. He assured me they would collect today. What a nice man, what service for a small order of Steak Pies and Sausage Rolls.
Today, around 10:20, the van arrived and a friendly driver offloaded a white box containing the long awaited pies. Being careful regarding space in the small freezer I only obtained a handful of butcher made steak pies and sausage rolls, and these fitted nicely into the freezer, though I may have to eat some tonight. No mince pies this time, maybe next.
Nothing else to say, and the sausage rolls look good...
