SEVEN MONTHS PREGNANT LAUREN NYLAND WAS HOLIDAYING IN PORTUGAL WHEN A 'HERO' CAME TO HER AID, JETTING IN FROM THE UK ARMED WITH THE GREGGS SAUSAGE ROLL SHE CRAVED ALAN JOHNSON

Social News Reporter 13:44, 05 Jun 2025 A pregnant woman's craving for a Greggs sausage roll while on holiday in Portugal was satisfied by a "hero" who travelled more than

1,000 miles just to deliver the snack. Jamie Nyland and his wife Lauren expressed their astonishment and gratitude as the former's brother, Shaun, jetted in with the famous savoury

grub. "I still CANNOT believe this," declared an astounded Jamie on Facebook. "My wife Lauren had a pregnancy craving two days ago, she really wanted a Greggs sausage roll

whilst on holiday. My brother travelled all day all the way to Portugal to bring her it and now is leaving 24 hours after." Alongside their Facebook post, snaps were shared of a

delighted Lauren holding aloft her goods - a single sausage roll and an additional four-pack for good measure to last their holiday. "What a kind man," Jamie gratefully posted.

"Thank you bro. Have a safe journey home." Writing in response, one Facebook user quipped: "That's adorable, really nice and sweet of him to do that I couldn't even

get my guy to go Morrisons!" A second suggested: "There's your godfather right there!" Another proclaimed: "What a hero!". A third person celebrated the gesture

saying: "That's devotion! Wow unbelievable!" Whilst a fourth concurred: "Very thoughtful and he got to enjoy some sunshine and spend time with the family too."

them in a British store at retail park near Albufeira shopping centre. They have stuff from Waitrose, Co-op and a massive Iceland range, when my family used to live out there they got the

stuff they were missing from home like Pringles etc." On the conclusion of their holiday, meanwhile, Jamie returned to Facebook seeking advice after admitting the pair were struggling

to come up with a suitable name for their unborn third child - due in eight weeks' time. "So... we've been really stuck with picking a name for our baby," he disclosed in

an update. "We had [daughter] Arabella's name months before but this time we're so stuck. "We THINK we have just ONE name we like... but we're not certain. Any

suggestions that pair well with Arabella and Roman? Also - some folk reckon you won't truly know a name until you meet them, is this true?" Article continues below Naturally, one

of the names floated was Greg as one user joked: "Considering you were craving sausage rolls thousands of miles away and there was a delivery made maybe if a boy call him Greg." A

second suggested: "Sometimes you just know when you see that little face looking up at you it just comes to you. I'm sure you will know when the time is right." Whilst a third

shared a similar stance: "I think when your baby's born you will look and say they look like a name and use that."
