What a petty, childish,sneaky change to make.
So let me get this straight, if I'm fortunate enough to walk into Greenhalghs when one of their excellent steak & ale pies has just come out of the oven, I'll pay £1.55 for it. But if I walk in 15 minutes later I'll pay £2 for it...and this lot are running the country?
