And I thought us using a spoon was bad!Great Plum wrote:Good old NPO butter... just smear it on the toast without a knife!Hendrik wrote:cereal, sure, it comes out of packets. i doubt even Fairfield could mess that one up. the toast was usually dire though. hardly rocket science to 'cook'.
...but the breaktime -self-made- toast was heavenly. still light and soft on the inside, golden brown and crusty on the outside. lashings of NPO butter and a covering of marmite........mmmmmm.......

The solution is an instant coffee. Much quicker. Tea is foul anyway.Richard Ruck wrote:Never found enough time during break for a brew AND a roll-up.

Oh, we love it really. I did, however, get asked not to smoke by Miss Azancot (is that how you spell it?) when I went to visit my wee bro a couple of weeks back. Hmph. And woohoo Mr Deller's back! Love the man.99yorkpj wrote:I think for many the 'browns' still wins..... those poor souls who trek across big side every spare minute of the day I'm sure will confirm the fact...!

Re: Brown Sugar......................
I'm sure you must have been there when the rumour went around that the brown sugar was laced with Vitamin E, which was supposed to keep the libido down.J.R. wrote:No - Nothing to do with the Rolling Stones.
I discovered a packet of soft dark brown sugar in the kitchen cabinet yesterday, and had a sudden urge to make some porridge.

That lumpy stuff we were served at breakfast with a big dollop of that gorgeous sugar in the centre was a real 'comfort-food'
