Bacon and eggs on toast - fine. But, sorry Jah, if you make your bacon sandwiches with toast then you're in the wrong. You may as well stick avocado and lettuce and oven-roasted organic Sicilian plum tomatoes with a drizzling of extra-virgin olive oil in at that point. You've spoilt it, so you may as well finish the job.


There are many fine toasted sandwiches, but the humble bacon sandwich ain't one of them.

It saddens me to read some of the comments in this thread, we truly are a divided nation. I'm firmly in the Remain camp, the humble bacon sandwich should remain just that...bacon with the rind left on, buttered soft white crusty bread, squidgy enough to leave fingerprints whilst soaking up the fat still oozing from the rind, finished off with a squirt of HP brown sauce. Job done. Although not for me, I have no objection to red sauce or even mustard, but as soon as you start adding anything else or toasting it, it stops being a bacon sandwich. Take your weird ways with you Leave voters...

Thick fresh white bread X 2, thickly buttered with unsalted butter


Rind on (lightly crisped fat) bacon X 2


Rind on smoked crispy streaky from Nathan X 2


A piece of each bacon type onto one half of each bread slice


Then fold each slice over to make a folded butty


Eat along with a mug of hot strong tea



No sauce here but a little white pepper can work.


Thank you

A bacon sandwich is a bacon sandwich - if it had egg in it, it would be a bacon and egg sandwich.

Strictly speaking its a Bacon and Egg doubler MM.

True, and I really should read threads thoroughly before adding, but I caught a glimpse of Brie and avocado and wanted to restore sanity and yolk stained shirt fronts to the debate. A good bacon and egg sandwich not only has a synergy that leads youngsters to want to explore the stars but is also the happy marriage of the old bacon sarnie and the egg banjo. It was the future once.

Except Daddies


HP 23.1 % sugar..


Daddies 17.2% sugar..


So it's also healthier.

It's the simple and undeniable truth. All other brown sauces are too fruity or too sweet. I don't care what the actual sugar content suggests.


Edit: BUT, a good pork sausage is a better bedfellow for HP sauce than bacon.

NO..


Non alcoholic wine is made just like regular wine.

The grapes are allowed to ferment and the wine is then aged just like any other wine.

However, just before it is bottled, the alcohol is removed. The result tastes like wine but without the buzz.

I'm guessing they acquired it rather than inventing it ?

    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
