Longest journey to get a pie?

Once went in a stag do in Kendal. Bought a family sized pork pie at oxenholme station on the way home to South west London cos you can't get decent pork pies anywhere in the south.
 
Have driven to Skipton a few times for a Stanforths butchers warm pork pie.

Bought 4 once for me and my girls and my niece and walked back to the car not noticing that the hot pie juice had melted a hole in the paper bag by which 3 of the pies had dropped out of on the walk back 🤷‍♀️

One pie between 4 and a moody drive home.
 
We went over to Bolton last week and bought a dozen pasties from Ye Olde Pasty Shop that’s bloody far enough for me, very nice & there’s only 5 left.

As Peter Kay would say “ mind me juices mind me juices”
 
Not pie related I don’t think. But I knew of someone who drove to junction 8 M6 from Blackpool & got snowed in, took a dump in a carrier bag & drove back. Now that’s some journey just for a shit. 😂😂💩

Excellent choice of pies, Lala. I always pop in for one, when passing.
The owner told me, they sell 11,000 pies a week! Online sales included.
 
Pie Floater ?
Yes, absolutely ST. I was addicted to them. That was back in 2003 and I'm still suffering withdrawal symptoms now! Just for those that don't know what we are talking about, I've attached a link to the incredibly good pie floater. And it tastes even better after a session on the beer 🍺😀

 
I went to Melton Mowbray on Wednesday....from Blackpool..

I had a pork with Stilton pie from Ye Olde Pork pie shoppe.
I thought I'd made a mistake when I smelled it but oh how wrong I was.
It was, without doubt THE best pork pie I have ever had.

They also do online mail order pies......
 
Before today, not very far. My new record is 150 miles; Wirral to ice station Bloomers round trip 😣
We were just short of Skipton when we heard the game was off and seriously considered continuing on to stock up on pies at the shop opposite the Bloomfield .But common sense got the better of us ! And we returned back to York.
 
I don’t get warm pork pies 🤔

But did anyone ever get a meat and potato pie with gravy from Ashursts on Bispham Rd close to the The Squirrel, simply the best pie I ever had!

Our paths may have crossed ? Spent many an hour rolling down the hill from Kings Cross..en route home ..usually about 03 / 04.00am. Played in the band that was resident at the Bourbon and Beefsteak ..

They are amazing, my wife was in Bolton last Monday visiting her mum so got her to bring a dozen back and we are already down to the last few.

Sure I’ve been here December 2009/10 .. Near a where the sightseeing boats are ? Had a strange experience at Bondai walked out of the hotel with my expat mates for some reason we all had Blackpool tops on and bumped straight into another pair of ex pats wearing Blackpool tops .. Think they called him Titch ..Seasiders everywhere 😉🍊
