pie-eater 207 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 OK, so this is all unexpected but I need to get back to the UK for some family-related stuff - one bit of sad news and another bit of good news - and so will be going on Saturday for 11 days or so. Due to overwhelming interest and demand from thousands of other members on these forums since I posted this topic a few minutes ago, I promise to make sure to do my best to bring you all the very latest in pie and beer news from the UK. Well, the bit that does pies good. ie. the north. And maybe not 'news' as such, but I'll show you some of what I consume. Before I consume it, of course. And there may well be some pear cider and kebab in there as well. Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 From the sounds not terrible news but hope it is all ok whatever. Do you take requests? Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yes, requests! Kebab is a must. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 Thanks. It's not really bad news about an immediate family member that really needs me to return, and theres some good news to celebreate as well, so no worries there. I kind of feel like a break and some pies and beer, so I was happy to make the decision. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yeah, but do you take requests? Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 Oh yes, requests. Well, I'll take them but don't know if I will be able to oblige. There's a set number of things that I NEED to have when I'm home but I'll try to fit some others in. Dozo.....! Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Pies, I think you should make it even more abundantly clear that you are not in fact fleeing from Japan because of quakes and green goo, but fully intend to return and support this fine country.....I wouldn't want you getting turned away at the airport due to a misunderstanding. Enjoy Strangeways Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 Funny you should say that, I have composed a love song for Japan and intend to sing it to them when I go through. Hopefully it will only enhance my obvious support for Japan and they will indeed keep up their part of the re-entry bargain! I am here now at Narita putting the finishing touches to it. Must go, long flight coming up soon. Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't mind, what was the damage on the flight? I hate having to click through five screens to find out what it is with all the extras. Link to post Share on other sites

stemik 14 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Hollands' steak and kidney pudding are something that I miss. Maybe Accrington make better pies than Wigan. Link to post Share on other sites
