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 ?

    • Depends on budget and numbers So many great choices and options, for a fun evening there's Kix,for a special meal evening Franklin's, for a cheap evening Megan's  Or Kokum for a lovely different Indian, Maria's for tapas or oru for vegan / vegetarian. 
    • Blank canvas is best, people have all sorts of ideas/furniture/vision boards to get on with.  Clean. Crisp. Neutral. If anything, dressing with freshly baked bread, and flowers makes subtle difference. 
    • I'd like to post a recommendation for Jerry Oscar of H.F.U. Ltd.   Jerry has just completed the renovation of my bathroom and I’m so happy with how it turned out.  My bathroom has a strange layout (with about a quarter of the room/floor space un-useable due to the stairs underneath), but he came up with some great ideas that have really made the most of the space - somehow he turned the room into a tardis and made room for a bath (previously only had a shower) AND even given me extra storage. He's a magician!  I felt he really cares about what he does and treated the project like it was his own home. He was also great to have around – super friendly, easy to talk to and raise any queries or concerns with the project, and he was very respectful of the space. He kept his tools tidy and made sure the bathroom was still usable while he worked, which made a big difference day to day. He doesn’t cut corners and clearly has high standards.  I’m honestly so pleased with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for someone reliable and skilled, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jerry. He does kitchens too, and if I ever redo mine, I’ll be giving him a call.

    • These Gents are amazing, we asked them to come and paint our whole house interior and fix a number of issues from previous paint jobs. They are professional, clean up after themselves and pay attention to every detail. Their work is outstanding and I can't recommend them enough, Brian and Malachi are incredible.
