Jo, Ally, it is the same in Leeds, say "Hello" and you have a friend for life.

Frank, the bean juice contaminates everything it comes in contact with in a plate

Jo, that is why you get a doorstep of fresh crusty bread. It is to mop up the cornucopia of heavenly flavours as bacon fat mixes with egg yolk mixes with bean juice.

Some people (me) cook beans in the same pan as the bacon, after the bacon is done, for an extra hit of lusciousness.

Now that's what my Mom does, she cooks the beans in the bacon fat and I've got to agree that it's the best way of doing them.
It's not really a problem for me anyway as we only have a full English at home once a year, that's when John cooks one on New Years Day and he's firmly in the "beans don't belong on a full English" camp. If we happen to be out for breakfast I always ask for no beans

Quite fancy a doorstep of crusty bread dipped in bacon fat now

Lilly and her mum have just been on a 4day mystery holiday by coach
They ended up in a county hotel near Glasgow
They have been to Ayr loch Ness I think and today to Gretna green


And the weather has been fantastic
And Lilly wanted to see the loch Ness monster

[Ally]

That sounds a lovely mini holiday Saundra.

[Kaz]

Oh that does sound fun Saundra

[Diflower]

Lovely, especially as it could have been somewhere boring!

Trust me Di, I wouldn't need to show ID to prove I was old enough

Apparently we need to leave the house at 8.20am, so that suggests that we have to catch a bus. I need to look at the timetable and see if I can suss which bus today. From here you can either get into Cannock and then onto Birmingham by train or Stafford, and the bus stops right outside the station.
