I'm surprised no-one's picked up this earth-shattering news yet - it even made today's Times - this from PlymouthLive:

Greggs' only Cornwall store closed months ago and no one noticed
ByCharlotte Becquart

The bakery at Carkeel Roundabout, Saltash, quietly opened in September 2018.

At the time, people in the area said it opened to 'no fanfare' and after two weeks of trading it still didn't appear on Greggs' website store locator section.

Until then Greggs had never ventured into the the Cornish Pasty's homeland.

And now it has been confirmed that the store closed four months ago, just as quietly as it opened.

Gregg's only Nailsea store also closed

They opened a few years ago, but then closed last summer for something like 6 months for a complete rebuild of the premises.  Then, when they re-opened, a couple of months ago, they promptly had to close down again because one of their staff returning from holiday abroad was diagnosed with Covid-19.  They are still closed.  Roll Eyes

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
