reasonable to consume?

*Possibly with tea. You know when you scrape the roof of your mouth to bits with the toast and the Marmite gets in and stings, and then the hot tea soothes it? Just so.

More than two pieces of toast is piggy.

I don't make the rules, I'm afraid. It's just a fact. It's why most toasters only have two slots.

I'm currently enjoying a breakfast of matjes, chopped onions, black bread and beer #LateNight

Well in that case I shall throw a couple of eggs and some rashers into the equation.

I reckon you want to get the Gaviscon on standby.

No. Cowardly, imo. I, on the other hand, shall merely pour myself another glass of beer.

Poached egg on mashed avocado and toast is all the rage
Put it in the toaster and see what happens

I once had this urge and had half a loaf of bread.

They say either you love it or hate it. But this doesn't apply to me. Sometimes I think it's great and sometimes I don't like it.

Avocado and egg. These people are beneath contempt.

I had about 8 slices last Sunday morning as there was f**k all else. Bang on all the same.

White bread toasted, butter, homemade tayberry jam, tea (2 sugars).

Had a yoghurt thing for cholesterol also, shrewd.

I had this in a café on Central Street last time I was over. Quite nice.

Cost me about £7. London bástards.

Tayberry? Is that Irish for something, sw?

There is an interesting article in the Guardian about why U2 are unloved in Ireland, but more interesting is the comments section, which displays the unbelievable number of reasons the Irish can hate someone for. :hehe: wd irishers.

Well I think a tayberry is a cultivated shrub in the genus Rubus of the family Rosaceae patented in 1979 as a cross between a blackberry and a red raspberry, and named after the river Tay in Scotland.

I didn't make the jam you understand, when I say home-made I mean home-made by my neighbour who it turns out has an allotment where loads of the ****ers grew.

Who knew.

"Ya cant polish a turd! People hate being lectured to by some four foot self righteous prick."

It's the sheer variety of reasons on offer that's stunning. It's the tax issues, the sunglasses, they're west Brits, no they're English, they're prods, they went to a posh school... it goes on and on and on. World class levels of bitterness, there.

They play here next week I think, only 1 night mind you which is very odd for them.

Not sure I would be putting statues up of them all the same.

Statues of pop stars are very naff, I'm afraid. Ditto footballers.

I don't hate U2. Not my cup of tea, of course, but I've managed to ignore their output for 20-odd years, so they don't bother me.

there is no limit. Marmite on toast is one of life's pleasures and should be enjoyed to its max

Naturally I am still subjected to their music on the radio, even in the brief time I am exposed to it I am almost guaranteed to hear something once or twice every weekend – see also Bruce Springsteen aka The Boss as they will refer to him.

Harmless enough of course, and there is the undeniable fact that at least two of the band just seem to sail along and bother nobody. Bono does tend to go on a bit all the same though I suppose, him and Geldof. They are almost competing in a competition of bellendery.

The other bloke, The Edge if you will. Fúck me. They actually call him that in interviews. The fúcking Edge.

It's a massive generalisation all the same to say they are hated in Ireland. Loved by as many if not more.

That is such a lot of old bóllocks though. I like Bill Bailey but he really let himself down there.

Not being a fan of The Edge, U2, or effects-reliant guitarists, I rather like it.
