Reply to: Bacon and egg sandwich

BTW, surely a "5-0" motif would've been a more appropriate use of Englands finest sauce?

To celebrate that England would have won 5-0 if they hadn't let that goal in?

I think I may just have stumbled on a Plan B involving my 40Kg luggage allowance, the client's mail room and a vacuum packer.

True(ish). Made there for HP Foods in Middlesex. Come to think of it, I doubt the bacon was produced here either.

Mmmmmm, bacon!!

Yep, it's just a shame it's so bloody difficult to buy HP and decent bacon in Holland, even though it's all made here. I guess that's what they call 'globalisation'.

Totally agree. My wife laughs at me when I insist she cuts my sandwiches and toast into triangles rather than rectangles.

Brown sauce, bleh.

WHS. Triangles taste better than rectangles.

Blast you Sir! I had a healthy bowl of museli at 06:30 hrs thinking that'll take me through to lunchtime, but now I'm afraid it's 'monkey see, monkey do' and I just have to have a bacon and egg sarnie with brown sauce!!

The girl in Fuzzys drew the brown sauce on today with a spiral pattern rather than a zig zag pattern. And cut it diagonally instead of straight across at a slightly jaunty angle.

It actually tastes better this way.

You can not talk about bacon and egg sandwiches when I am in Germany, it's the rules. In fact you are not allowed to mention any British goodies that I can't get.

WHS

bacon, proper sausages, melton mowbry pork pies, sausage rolls are all banned from being discussed otherwise we will discuss the low price/high quality and huge variation of mass(1 litre beers)..

Go to a butcher and explain you want your spek cut a little thicker (about 2 or 3 mm); they'll cut it for you, even though they might think you're a bit wierd.

Yeah, come on... you're a contractor you should be buying bespoke meat with your loot!

[Mich the Tester]

And they might do you some custom sausages a la blighty to boot.

Problem solved. This forum is a great place.

Indeed; a really good butcher is always open to ideas. My local butcher in Holland took up my idea of making Lincolnshire sausages, tried them, liked them, and now sells them in his shop; he can't make enough of the things. Ony drawback; he calls them 'Tuscan sausages' otherwise nobody will buy them. Bloody ignorant cloggie consumers, think they know their sausages, pah!

I have to bring certain products over each week as some things are either a nightmare to find or just too 'different'.

Robinsons (no added sugar) orange squash being one of them

There is bacon, and it is very good stuff too, but it is just not the same. It is always sliced so thin that if you show it a frying pan or a grill it turns into a crisp.

Why not have a sausage?

Again, not the same now stop it!
