We always used to have to toast separately.....

Ok, first fried bread and then toasted bread. Voilà!

With jam on the toast

But perhaps the best example of all was when I went to a site I supported at Seal Sands near Middlesbrough. The route I took was up the M1, A1, A19. And in a layby on the A19, a little before you get to Middlesbrough is a café that is literally a portacabin. First class bacon, eggs, toast and a coffee, £3.50.

If oop north again try J60 on the A1 [head west] breakfast in a bun - But be prepared to be careful how you eat it.

With jam on the toast

obviously

No! Marmalade.

 

[Elawin]

No! Marmalade.

Either. It doesn't really matter, although marmalade is preferable if the bacon is fatty. The bitterness of proper Seville marmalade counteracts the fattiness

Or in a sandwich - needs just as much care

Edinburgh is a beautiful city Mypinchofitaly, and late May might be just about the best time of year to see it. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

May be the 'scottish sausage' - a square slice of sausage meat and it may also contain white pudding. Clearly you need to try it then head south for the 'full english' then head over to Ireland for the 'ulster fry' - the pleasure just goes on

Anyway I'm reading the Edinburgh guide and I can't wait to see it. My brother was been twice ( 1 for holiday and one for work) and he's very keen about Edinburgh...
