What about for one? Asking for a friend...

That would be fking brilliant.

I’m both ashamed and proud to say I ate them all. In one hit. Again, early death awaits me.






Also, not ashamed. Not even remotely.

Top skillz.

Pity swinnerton isn't around to let us know what he thinks about that.

I was out for a long cycle ride yesterday. After about 35km, my mate and I decided it was time for breakfast. We were in the tiny town of Schengen, so no chance of a FEB.
2 coffees, an OJ and a damson “Streusel” (crumble topped) pie stepped up.



I should have taken a picture of the inside. It was lovely! Crème pâtissière, damson, crumble..... mmmm
It was the size of my open hand and it didn’t last long!

[BrabusMog]

That is awful. I can't really grumble as I haven't cooked anything this weekend, but I'll drag this thread back to normality either tomo or Tues.

[Dibble]

Today’s breakfast was much closer to healthy than usual! Scrambled eggs (with less butter than I’d normally use) on toasted/buttered English muffins. Hit the spot after the dog walk.

Can't disagree. That looks awesome, in a simplistic 'stick in gob' fashion.

Indeed, but 'toast'? Hardly toasty. Potatoes making a welcome return though.

Yeah, this is great, great work.

I share the widespread admiration for that, but for my tastes it's over-sausaged. 2 would have been ideal (with mustard of course). Good to see a grown-up's mushroom. Nice work.

That's a made up word, there is no such thing as over sausaged. What you see there is a normal portion of sausages, plus spare sausage(s). it's a good idea to have spare sausage as you never know when you're likely to need one in an emergency.

I am worried about the direction of this thread.....porridge.... too many sausages......has it been hijacked?

Yea, I'm concerned. Over-sausaged

This is the GREAT breakfast thread, isn't it? Not a wimpy, "I've got a sore tummy from all the sausages" nonscene thread!

Volume 2 has started on feisty note I see; it was possibly the Boopz. Or that swinnerton fella.

Regardless, a great breakfast doesn't have to have sausages. It could have sausages, indeed many do have sausages. But too many sausages is certainly A Thing. Hence over-sausaged.

I contend that in this instance, Gluggy's combo of BP, bacon and 4 fat snorkers represents an over-abundance of the otherwise-delectable meat-filled tube.

I understand the claim that spare sausages are handy just in case, but don't buy that as a compelling argument here. In closing, I don't claim for a moment that the Oracle has spoken, but, well ...

Am I the only one who thinks of The Cruel Sea whenever I see snorkers?

Was talking about snorkers to an ex navy (submarines) friend at the weekend. He said that snorkers was a brand, the first to successfully tin sausages (in fat) so that they came out like sausages rather than the tinned hot dogs style of sausage.

Wiki says it's Palethorpe's.

I needed something to take the edge off an unexpectedly busy trip to Costco this morning.

It's been almost 500 pages of folks being both supportive and blatantly rude in equal measures about others offerings and nobody has fallen out over it. The sort of sharp tongued banter that used to be trademark of PH.

Not entirely true old bean. Didn't Bolidemichael strop after a bad tempered exchange following one of his launched mushroom omelettes, the teasing of which caused him to utter some fairly direct commentary, never to be seen again?

It's usually a beacon of safe-space and appropriately-nuanced merciless piss-taking, but Dibble was perhaps unusually and needlessly forthright over his cornflakes this morning.

Bolide's problem was being overly critical of others and then presenting his IED-esque breakfasts day in, day out laugh

It's only "brekkie" and it says more about someone's character if they get bothered by some light-hearted piss-taking! I can only imagine Dibble must have called Swinners a see you next Tuesday or similar to get a deletion

Holy volume revival!

Yes, the moment one realises that working tremendously hard through COVID whilst trying to maintain PH-contributing-work-shirking-habits do not mix very well! Apologies for the drama; who'd've thought that homemade ketchup would have been the trigger.

I still chuckle at the comment someone wrote, to paraphrase; 'if an argument breaks out on this thread, I'm quitting the internet'

[BrabusMog]

he's alive!

If anyone has a better description of eclectic, other than this thread, I'd love to hear it.
