Any of you Dundee types know if you can still get Wallace pehs in Dundee ?. I mourn the day Wallace disappeared from the shelves of Tescos etc.

I thought that but assumed it was a Scottish thing and didn't want to show my ignorance...

Pehs: Dundonian plural of 'pie'.
"Fa a' the peh?"
"Ah a' i' a..."

If he can we need a batch of pehs to Knockhill on Saturday for half time refreshments.
Probably add a couple of seconds to a lap time.

Dundee being Dundee the original Wallace bakery on Dura Street closed a few years back. There's now tree's growing out the windows. Anywhere else and it'd be a A-list building.
Think I heard they just sold/licence the name now.
Here's a famous Dundee phrase for Tut to decipher
"Eh a Peh an an ingin in ah, an al tak a Tele tae!"

That's better.
AFAIK Wallace's pehs are still available
according to this, but folks like Clarkies (that scrumptious 24hr baker just down the road from me & purveyor of fine heart-attack-on-a-bun such as the "Gutbuster", "Helicopter" and many more fried animals on bread) or Nicoll's have their own versions....
Tell you what tho' - has anyone tried Fleming's (from Forfar IIRC) steak & gravy pehs?
Food of the facking gods, I tell thee
Ali, do you want me to bring some pehs on Sunday?

Foolish lad.
Bridies are from Forfar.
Flemmings are from Arbroath!
Flemingos on the other hand are from East Africa which is similar to Forfar, but different.
