mary1947 2,085 Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Nuncargate ?? I did not go to Nuncargate on my scooter, I was only ???? which was years before I needed my beautiful Red mean Machine. Mrs B you will be please to know that I have put my name down for the Monaco Grand Prix. After 15 years of pot holes (And I mean very, very big POT HOLES) Sedgwick street is finally going to be resurfaced. I will take that comment back as the whole street is not going to be resurfaced as I don't think that the council have enough tar, so all that is been done is the centre of the road, The only good thing about it is that folk can still park both sldes while it is being done. Next Day wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee went down the middle of Sedgwick St in my mean machine did not feel one bump or find any pot holes, must remember to stop at the bottom though as it is a main road.

Hey Arnold 88 Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Aldi's Specially Selected Melton Mowbray pork pie is nice. Plenty of meat, gelatin, nice crust with a hint of pepper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
siddha 825 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I like those made by Taylors of Bottesford. Dickenson and Morris do a very good one that can only be bought in its Melton Shop I think it has a different colour wrapper to the one sold in supermarkets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,144 Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I was starting to enjoy Maloneys of Tuxford pork pies which I got from the Gonalston Farm shop but now that’s burnt down I don’t know of another local stockist. I did try Hockerton Farm shop but their pies were very stodgy. Perhaps Spring Lane may bake their own. I’ll check when I’m passing. Maybe Stoppards in Southwell do them as well. They certainly make excellent meat pies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hey Arnold 88 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Tell you what @Beekay if your'n ent got no jelly innit I'll send you a refund in the post Finished one last night and very tasty it was too.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob.L 1,090 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 On another note, the Yorkshire-based makers of “Vale of Mowbray” pork pies is being wound-up. Sold primarily in supermarkets as a budget brand. Never liked their pies. Rock-hard pastry, no jelly, and pink sludge filling. https://www.just-food.com/news/uk-pork-pie-firm-vale-of-mowbray-enters-administration/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philmayfield 6,144 Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 ‘Vale of Mowbray’ is a bit of a con for a Yorkshire made pie! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,470 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 It must be a sign of age......when I was young I liked pork pies but hated the jelly, so I used to pick it out and throw it aside. As I've got older I now couldn't eat a pork pie without a reasonable amount of jelly in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

radfordred 6,284 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Anyone heard of Maloneys? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RadFordee 68 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I very rarely eat pork pie as I'm not much of a pastry fan and I hate the jelly in them. It reminds me of that awful ham in a tin that my Grandma used to buy for Sunday tea, and although I've never eaten any the jelly has always reminded me of frog spawn...yuk! I do love jelly babies though BK. Green and Black ones are the best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
