Say sausages - and smile!

JOHN Pettit is certainly a local food hero - but could the family company be Britain's ultimate?
That is the question being posed by UK TV Food after customers nominated the Grimsby butchers for a telly award.
Personally, I think everyone in the town who has no doubt tasted the fabulous offerings of this traditional family favourite, should get online and vote for it.
It is an independent star in Grimsby, with a reputation second-to-none, and should inspire others in the food business.
Having enjoyed the wonderful produce at a weekend barbecue it came as no surprise to see the nomination, and I wish them well.
It is a truly traditional place, and if it wasn't for the fleet of modern delivery vans , John Pettit and Sons certainly wouldn't look out of place in the time warp that is Beamish. Ajnd with a strong customer base it also does well in a town centre that now has an overwhelming supermarket offering.
Being a keen cricketer I'm also grateful to them for keeping the costs down with the long-standing sponsorship of the local leagues, and that sort of community involvement leaves a nice taste in the mouth too.
