Plum's prediction comes true.
Plum's reminder about that most excellent of breakfasts brought memories flooding back . The feeling of doom as we inspected the grubby trays. The panic we all felt as we approached the serving wench and realised there was no menu apart from the one at the store entrance some 50 feet away! Just what were we to order?!? Was it the Flying start? The Scottish flying start or was it called the quick start!?! Why the hell did they not just call it an all day breakfast!!!
Somehow we managed to order and before long the breakfasts were delivered to us by an attractive waitress. "There are no beans with a flying start!" I observed, I was a little disappointed but the fact that the breakfast looked freshly cooked and hot was a bonus. I dusted my breakfast with pepper and then added a little (I thought) salt. I munched heartily on this most important meal of the day and noted how tasty the sausages were how crispy the bacon but it was a little salty... a little too salty! "There are too many holes in the salt shaker." I said. A discussion followed on just how many holes there should be in a salt shaker - at most three but usually just one! Plum predicted I would have a salty taste in my mouth for weeks... his prediction proved to be very accurate.
Breakfast 8.5/10 , salt shaker 1/10 , crack 10/10

I am sitting here trying to write a comment,but can't stop laughing,what an excellent blog,
I remember you waxing lyrical about Morrison's providing the condiment accessories in the form of actual salt & pepper pots, but you were blissfully unaware of the of the problems that lay within,
your daily salt gram percentage quota was definately exceeded that day,
I remember hearing you complaining of a "salty mooth" for some considerable time.
Morrisons have a wicked plan to raise their customers blood pressure so that they can sell them useless herbal remedies.
A most excellent image of a salt shaker. If this was a car boot I'd offer you 75p for it.
But Plum already managed to get it for 30p.
Gen LOL. It still stuck in his craw for two weeks afterwards. He only wanted to give 20p for it.
