    The BBC have done it again by leaking that there is a good chance that the nation will have to cope with a national shortage of pork pies , within minutes the village of Jump was gridlocked with long queues forming outside Percy Turners as people rushed to fill up , tempers flared & people are getting extremely crusty , well done the Beeb as if we didn"t have enough problems.

    Judt had a lovely hot pork pie from Birkinshaw's on Summer Lane, and am now cleansing the pallet with a stunning piece of parkin.

    No joking now, this is serious.

    I can do without petrol or diesel but not a good pork pie.

    Think yourselves lucky. I've not had access to a pork pie since I moved to Ireland!
    And they don't do custard, or vanilla slices or proper cream scones, or most other sorts of pies, or mushy peas.

    The Irish are notoriously fussy eaters. For some, it’s potatoes or nothing at all.

    Hope so. But unlikely I would imagine. Stocking up next time I get the chance. Chest freezer on order.
