Oh most definitely, in ways that never cease to amaze, surprise or scare me 5hitless.

Frying an egg is dead easy.

Pan, ordinary cooking oil (or fat of your choice) to a couple of mm depth max.
Pan on medium heat for 30-45 secs so there's some heat in the oil, but it's not smoking. If the pan is hot to start then all you wind up with is an egg with a burnt lacy surface that you could use as a frisbee or cut your lip on. Plus you won't have time to cook the white properly before the bottom has turned to plastic.
Break egg into the pan, from fairly close to the pan bottom so it's not falling far.
Flip fat onto the top surface to encourage the white on the top to cook. Optionally you can flip the whole egg, but it will need no more than 10 seconds upside down.

The whole process takes about a minute, cooked white, runny yolk.

It's quite possible to do the same with no fat in a good non stick pan, but that takes a bit more practice.

Incidentally I don't usually butter the bread, especially if bacon and egg butty so the yolk can sink into the bread

I like a hard yolk, none of this runny yellow stuff. Otherwise though, it sounds good - tell me your cuppa tea method.

Barbarian!!! Solid yolk in a hard boiled egg maybe, but in a fried egg? Why bother wasting an egg.

Good tea = find a tea that you like + Boiling water (100 degrees) + brew for 30-60 seconds with some stirring + a bit of milk added after the tea is brewed and the bag removed

If the water isn't 100 degrees the tea won't brew which is why you can't make decent tea at altitude without a pressurised kettle.

I don't like soggy food. Or food that looks normal but pops when you cut into it, splishing yellow goo everywhere.

Not bad, but I need longer than a 30-60 second brew! You call me a barbarian.

Solid yolk is a must in a Bacon and Egg Sarnie.
Saves having to put what was a clean shirt in the wash

WSS Brewing is important.
