Full English

An hypothetical future where the Flea picks up sticks for the UK would afford the pleasures of a full English breakfast. This is a tempting thought even if now more likely to be a weekend treat instead of dreadful daily deskfast fare. I would keep clear of the quorn so-called sausages for my fry-up, mind you.

I can see facing a full on Fry-Up maybe an hour to two hours after awakening. Given my distaste for much besides coffee and cigarettes upon awakening (and perhaps a lovely and blameless almond croissant), I doubt I could face kippers and kidneys first thing in the morning without going a bit green.

Now, to me kippers are a breakfast in themself. All those fiddly little bones don't work well with traditional fry-up fare. I like kidney in pie (as in "steak and kidney") though lately I have taken to chicken liver. The latter is definitely a dinner item though.

Now this Norte Americano took full advantage of a full Fry-Up every morning during his recent sojourn in Salisbury. While somewhat bemused at the unpredictable variability of portions, this retired gunner tucked in with gusto!

In the words of the estimable Emeril, "It's a pork fat thing!"
