Vomit Inducer

The drive to the boot was quite fun with the usual mix of chit-chat. Politics, the arts, philosophy... none of these subjects were discussed.

The boot proved to be slightly dull but I did manage to get a book for 30p and a DVD of the cultish Classic: MAN BITES DOG for 2 quid. I was hoping for a single pound but that wish was not granted.

The breakfast was disgusting. Scrambled eggs on toast - a simple enough request but I have never had to force down such filthy muck in my life. I only managed half of it and tried to wash the disgusting taste away with a cup of tea. Alas the tea was rancid and I almost vomited up the whole mess. That would have put Plum off of his beans on toast though, so I swallowed the vomit. I think next week I will have breakfast before going to the boot, maybe take a flask of tea and a buttered scone.

Big Sausage Breakfast

Breakfast is considered the most important meal of the day, and on the weekends it is often the only meal for Tea Addict. Nothing like stuff your face first thing and therefore remaining unable to consume anything for the rest of the day, well until at least late evening when you are guzzling the 7th mug of tea and scoffing a handful of digestive biscuits or if I was fortunate in the bakery a tasty apple pastry.

To blame for the ever expanding Tea Addict stomach line is my obssessive craving for bratwurst and red cabbage with pre-packed fried tattie and onion weekend greed.
The small nuremberg bratwurst two-pack lasts just as it says on the pack - two times. I wash the gut filling treat down with some coffee and it lasts all day until dinner time. It is quite delicious and provides a home-based alternative to Saturday Scottish breakfast at Wetherspoons which I can recommend as a tasty fill-up (see reviews below):

Wetherspoon Wick - 5/5 fine cooking, bacon grilled to perfection

Wetherspoon Inverness - 5/5 tried once earlier this year and was served up hot and tasty complete with super mug of Tetley

Wetherspoon Edinburgh Airport - 4/5 more pricey than the above pubs but equally as tasty

Wetherspoon (The Crystal Palace) Glasgow- 3/5 good put not always available and the furnishings was a bit fusome last time I was there

Wetherspoon (Sir John Moore) Glasgow - 4/5 good but pub area not well laid out

Wetherspoon (Red Lion) London Gatwick - 4/5 good but sassenach prices and rebranded as an English breakfast i.e. without the Jock lorne sausage.
