Did it have black pudding and fried tattie scone?

of course. But in the land of hope and glory it is known as Lancashire black pudding and hash Browns

So moronic nationalism? What is that exactly, you mean the rise of the SNP for example, or just general jingoistic rubbish (Which we've always had, as long as I can remember).

I mean MORONIC nationalism, not the political one - which may or may not be moronic, I don't know yet. financial Independence from Westminster is one thing you can argue with facts, but the people who define their identity as a hatred for some other country are losers beyond belief.

I shall be collecting some from Bury Market next Tuesday!

The B@stards. It's a full English breakfast you jock gits.

The Full Scottish and Full Irish are subtly different from the Full English, though. Mostly to do with soda farls, tattie scones, white pudding and their ilk. And of course the exclusion of the tomato, which as a vegetable/fruit has no place on a Scottish plate.

You'd report them to trading standards if they called it a Full English.

Cant stand the stuff but I understand Bury market is a good place to buy it. Will you be purchasing some Lancashire cheese too?

Agree with that - always thought it was sad that some of my compatriots identities seem to be defined by hating the English. Then again, every country has it's share of idiots.

When did it become a full English anyway? I remember when I was a kid it was just listed as a cooked breakfast in most of GB, though an Ulster fry was always an Ulster fry.
I think the "full English" started with Brits in Benidorm and Megamuff. All the "British" pubs doing all day breakfasts etc. Even the Irish pubs did the "full English".
Of late there has been the reactionary "full Scottish" and "full Irish" though I do understand the differences in what is on the plate. What is on the plate varies within the countries in question anyway so can the "full" be defined at all?

According to Wikipedia, which you lot have forced me to look up this morning, the first recorded full brekkie was actually called the Full Scotch. So there.
