Had my first real breakfast in 10 days yesterday.
It was a Full Welsh & Continental breakfast buffet, but I was SO VERY restrained. I had protein and fruit. A slice of turkey, ham and cottage cheese and a boiled egg. Grapefruit slice and grapes and apple. And two cups of tea. I did not have sauteed potatoes (although looked grim tbh), beans, toast, scrambled or fried egg, bacon, sausages, cereal or pastries. I'm quite pleased with myself. Therefore I didn't take a photo, as what I had was not mouthwatering enough. Quick background. We stayed Tuesday night at an Etap hotel. £18 for the room. Breakfast was offered at £3.95 per person, but looked to be a poor Continental selection so we declined and had a boring diet shake. The next night was our free night at the far more upmarket Park Inn - my bro won it in a charity raffle and passed it onto us. Mum suggested extending the stay, but the Park Inn wanted £138 per room, which is why we booked the Etap the night before instead! Breakfast was included however. But look at this from a decent looking, clean cafe, not 10 minutes walk away: The Legend is a 20 PIECE MEAL! If you finish it, you get a voucher for the next one half price. Pays to do your homework when you're short on cash I can tell you. Sorry about the quality, I nipped in to get a pic and didn't want to look like a rival breakfast purveyor, spying on them. As above we didn't eat there. |
