I a just doing my Sainsbury's order and I don't quite know how I am going to deal with this.

There are Haywards pickles available so I will survive after a fashion but how I will be dealing with the unavailability of Branston pickle I really don't know.

Having to go cols turkey!

Piccalilli, now I a going to have to have some.

I am not surprised there is Branston in the Devils own country. We always only get something if there is any left!

Sulk,sulk.
