Where to put the pies?

Whilst in Brighton we stumbled upon a bit of a quandary.  Following our sumptuous Thai lunch we bumped into a pie stall and had no choice but to purchase two rather large but perfectly formed apple turnovers.  Now we all know a turnover is not the same without a mug of tea but there were no vendors of Britain's finest drink in sight, so the turnovers had to be stored while the search for a brew began.  That was the quandary - with panniers and bags full to the brim - what to do?

They ended up stuffed into Nick's camelback - not ideal - turnovers became 'driven overs' or that's what they looked like.  So do we face a future of mashed pies and crushed croissants?

No Dick has found the solution!...  a top pannier with expanding side panniers fit for a dozen, pies.... or beer,  wine, croissants, pain au chocolat, garlic....


and a  bargain too!
