      In my limited experience of their product, it tends to come ready sliced.

        The girl on the checkout thought it would go down well.
        This is totally unacceptable to all non-white loaves, he said with a rye smile. Well, only barley acceptable anyway

        Oh dear, that's probably all spelt wrong.

            Perhaps somebody should propose a toast - or offer to buy a round?

              On a more serious note re. Warburtons, https://www.warburtons.co.uk/Images/...h_April_16.pdf . It's bread made with refined 'white' floor I avoid, not Warburtons as a company.

                  "I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square."

                    They must have found those Tasty Toaster covers in some junk yard. Anyone on here old enough to remember Tasty Toasters?

                      Do you mean the things that looked a bit like a small warming pan that made toasted sarnies on a gas hob?

                        1st September 2020 - schools start reopening... I thought that this was a good day to celebrate, in song, the great achievements of our Minister for Educatio...

                          Thanks for link. As an ex-teacher, I'm quite happy about the "ex".

                            Yes - two facing cups fixed to two 3 ft long arms with plastic handles on a pivot. You stuck your bread slices inside each cup, along with the required filling, clamped the device together, trimmed away the excess bread around the edges, then placed the cups over a gas jet, one after the other. What would come out would resemble a flying saucer, with brown concentric rings on both sides and a nice crunchy edge, but success would depend on how long the item had been cooked, and in turn on the strength of the gas.

                              My Wife asked me to get her a roll of bubble wrap when I was out. When I got back she told me to just pop it in the spare room...took me hours.

                                Was it social bubble wrap?
