I just try and follow recipes as closely as possible, but have my share of disasters also.

M'Sahib insisted that I have breakfast this morning, as I have my first vaccination later today. Beans on granary bread toast, topped with fried eggs, and a side of ham.

Hair of thy dog, heavy night last night...

No kidding

Fine effort.

Surprised you can get on your bike.

I'm surprised he hasn't tried to drink it.

Excellent, though given the time, it could be defined as 'Tea'.

I reckon the inclusion of a portion of jockey's whips would mean that is indeed the case.

Chips definitely move it to brunch at least....

We have a busy weekend of stocking up for the apocalypse, so just preparing Monday's breakfast now.


A bottle of Chianti and pizza florentine.

Oh it's gonna be nice.

Bare bones basics but with good ingredients (Manston Epicure sausages and free range eggs) cooked well will do me nicely today.

Looks great, I must have been cooking at the same time.

Sausages look brilliant but the poor eggs look anemic.

Sausages are brilliant, there was a time when I (or visiting friends) would bring sausages from overseas for my freezer because you simply couldn't get good ones here. Those days are gone. Eggs are perfect for my taste, that's the way I always cook them.

Fair enough, horses for courses and all that. I like a runny yolk, but I want the white edges to be crispy black.

^Only way I know of to get the crispy black edges going is when they're cooked in oil, and I don't use oil for eggs. Anyways, cook them however you like.

About 20 of us went on a package holiday to Ibiza in the summer we finished school. One lad had a load of black puddings, rashers and local made snags vacuum sealed with him.

Went absolutely fucking nutz when we nicked them all and had a big 5am pissed-up feast on the first night while he was passed out or was out shagging somewhere.

Irish food.

And the answer is an eejit who didn't realise it would be easier to get in a restaurant in Ibiza than in his home town.

Do you not like sausage, bacon and eggs yourself?

Poms, that's who. Doesn't matter where they go in the world they'll be gagging for a full English the day after they get there and call the place a horrible shithole if they can't find one. Then even when they do find one, they'll whinge that the beans were touching the eggs or the bacon wasn't streaky
