From: Justin C on 29 Jun 2010 10:32 Got fed up waiting ages to be served in Gregg's today so I pushed past the queue and while the staff were serving at the other end of the counter I helped myself to two baked meat savouries and walked out the back. Nary a word was said. Justin. -- Justin C, by the sea.
