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 ?

    • Looks great! but could it be possible to pinch the frames a bit tighter with some long nose pliers and add more struts to stop the tree rats getting inside? Also, the only issue with a mesh base is that it could attract rats towards your property.
    • I struggled with the parakeets literally decimating the bird feeders within an hour.  I tried squirrel proof ones to see if they helped, but they jammed their claws in the mechanism to stop it closing.  Then the pigeons managed to do the same.  I spent a long time researching the best ideas and came across something on Pinterest.  Someone had used a metal dog cage and attached it to a wooden platform.  So that's what I did!  Once set up, you just hang the feeders inside.  Large birds like pigeons and parakeets cannot get inside.  I get all the small birds, plus starlings.  Not many thrushes or blackbirds around, so have no idea if they could get in.  The squirrels do!  It's amazing watching them slide through narrow gaps.  I also covered the roof of the cage with a piece of plastic to keep the rain off, plus I am just about to replace the cage plastic base with something more mesh like.  It can get a bit gooey after a while, so with mesh, all the dropped seed from the messy goldfinches, will go on to the ground where the pigeons can clear up.  I even added a birdcam.  
    • Yep, of course I do - did you not read the bit from the survey about the noise having a negative impact on foraging bats? And like @Angelina I'm aware it affects other people, and if no one complains then it gives them an argument that's it's all ok.  The tree in question was a cherry that everyone loves, didn't need to be touched, and the council admitted was a mistake and shouldn't have happened.  The council and Gala use the 'local' narrative as a benefit, without any figures to back it up. It is used as an argument for the event to go ahead, when there's no basis of fact. The attendees are clearly not local as they've proved they don't give a **** about the area. The council do tell us where the money is spent - 100% on running the Events dept, and a myriad of unlisted free events. They just don't tell us how much, so that we can make an informed decision on whether the gain is with the pain.  Sorry, what was your point again?
    • Leon came this evening and did a small job.  He was able to fit me, which I’m grateful for.  He arrived when he said he would. Very professional & friendly guy, offered great advice and very reasonable prices.  Highly recommend Leon! 👍
