        A particular British Idiom. It really means "I have a complete lack of interest whether this affects you or not" Example: "May I have a cup of tea and a cheese sandwich" "Sorry, we are all out of cheese" Now they are not sorry at all, but they can hardly say "Tough Sh*t, no cheese".

                  I looked at cricket grounds both in England and Australia. But the second sentence did not fit anywhere... so I did a wild guess. :)

                        This could also be read as "I apologize for not being able to serve what you requested for". So, "sorry" here makes a lot of sense.

                                        There are a few "greasy spoon" cafes in and around Crawley where they probably do say that.

                                        If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.
