Yet late yesterday Jenny Neatwhistle felt it necessary to issue a dramatic profit warning for the family group, pointing to rising input costs and ‘bugger all’ chances of a pay rise. Grocery cost projections, last calculated in January, had not taken account of the growth in appetite of their sons, Mark, Hugo and Philip, who these days ‘just pack it away like there’s no tomorrow’.
