Cold's back and pies are back.

The cold's returned so blogging will remain light.

There is some good news though:

Pies back on The Horse Shoe menu.

The Horse Shoe bar Pies will return to The Horse Shoe bar on Monday. A campaign to restore pies to the menu at a traditional Glasgow pub has proved successful.

Pro-pie advocate David Hunter has placed this comment on my previous post:

Many thanks for all the comments in this post. I'm happy to say that M&B reversed their decision, which incidentally had been made by the local area manager and not by M&B senior management, and have returned the pies to there rightful place - in the pie warmer of The Horse Shoe Bar. One comment made "it takes months to find a customer, seconds to lose one" proved very true, as guys like myself and many others, left for other Glasgow locals that have stayed with tradition. Mind you there's not a lot of traditional pubs left. Monday 15 January 2007 sees the pie relaunched and McGhees who supply them have donated the first 100 FREE. Thanks again for all your support.
