I have some great breakfast photos for you, as soon as I can work out how to get them on here (here being the iPod Limey has wonderfully gifted me as she has a new one).

Although nothing from this morning.
I ate so much yesterday that I really didn't fancy anything until gone midday.

I got three out of four letters right, that's pretty good for me!
Bruschetta and milk for breakers this morning, plus two of the little Italian biscuit-things from Limey's Secret Santa hamper.

sliced pork pie in a wholemeal roll, no butter margarine pickle relish or other garnish.
followed by another wholemeal roll, unbuttered again, filled with sliced pork pie just for variety.

green tea, (no milk no sugar obviously)

Right.
A full and proper account of my Glasgow/ Arran will be written in another thread at some point.
This is just to get me back into the reportage swing of things.

Scottish breakfasts from last Friday onwards.

For reasons to be explained later I had to go to a local pub when I arrived 3 January. No danger of drinking myself silly; Glasgow laws mean that you can't buy alcohol until 11.00, but certain pubs are open for breakfast and generally cheaper than local cafes. And have bigger and better toilets.

Anyway
1) Sausage, bacon and fried egg in a white bread bloomer sandwich.
Impossible to pick up, so I ate it with a knife and fork. I'm such a Sassenach.

2) Despite my ridiculously early arrival at the Alamo (same morning), the owner Steve offered breakfast. A meal I was not in any way entitled to. I declined of course, but when pressed accepted more tea. It came with shortbread.

The next morning we had proper, sanctioned breakfast at the Alamo.
As mentioned in another time, another place, there are various options. I used those options to have a three course breakfast...

1) This is actually Dana's breakfast. She had toast too (as did I)

2) My first course, croissant. Then I had one rasher of bacon and a small spoon of scrambled egg.

And then...

I had the healthy option.
Which I suppose is only really healthy if you haven't had the rest.

1) Fruit salad topped by muesli, topped by yoghurt. All washed down with tea.

The next morning Limey and I had breakfast on the boat to Arran.
We split a Large Breakfast.

2) My choices were fried egg, bacon, beans and white toast.
Limey had fried egg, sausage, tomato and brown toast.
She had coffee, I had tea and a good time was had by all.

And finally.
Breakfast on my own on the boat back.
Tea and toast only.
It tasted like the end of a holiday.

With the exception of the shortbread and tea and the toast and tea, it all looks great! It's not Wheaties, but I'd eat it anyway.

It's not bad. Enough of the rice though. After the first month back here, I've had enough of the rice.

Plain rice, mango juice and rice, Coke and rice, fried rice, steamed rice, hard rice, soft rice, happy rice and sad rice, Japanese rice, Korean rice, Dragon rice, NFA rice, Jasmine rice.

Enough already.

Now the fresh mangos, on the other hand, could be a part of one meal a day for a few months without burning me out.

My wife: What for you want me cook you breakfast?*

slang: Hmm. I'll have a double Dana's breakfast please. And...a double Sundae croissant. With real butter, no margarine please. All that without need for an Imodium.

* - my wife speaks very good English but many people here speak like this. You know what they are saying but you still chuckle just a bit as they talk to you.
