nah , have been to gordon riggs before - buy it cheap and stack it high - thats Mr Riggs policy - whatever you do when you go there - DONT buy the fruit - a lot of it is out of date and the staff clean them so they look fresh for the customers - I know ex staff & managers who used to work there & have told me of the working practices that are in place there.
I have been to ossy mills before and I cant imagine that place in haslingden being like it - it looks way to big and new.
But I will find out on saturday.
I do like Hansons towards Clitheroe though - there is a guy there called peter -he knows everything about pesticides & weedkillers - the guys is a walking encyclopedia regarding those kinda things - very helpful !
I also like the small place at the back of atlas street - (road end garden centre ??) very handy at times.
