markrichardb: Did you get a chance to have a Sunday roast dinner too?

catpower1980: It was 20 years ago so I don't remember all the details :) But as it was in a hotel were the breakfast were "standardized", I highly doubt they made something different on Sunday.

BTW, what are the dishes in a sunday roast dinner, the name alone makes me hungry now.... ^o^
Adaliabooks about covers it. Much like the full English breakfast, roasts tend to vary from restaurant to restaurant. The combinations are always slightly different with the only constant being gravy. My family home-cooked roast dinners tend to consist of beef or pork, roast potatoes, three different vegetables (broccoli, green beans, carrots, spinach, roast parsnips), cocktail sausages wrapped in bacon, apple stuffing, and Yorkshire pudding topped with gravy. Sometimes an onion is soaked in the gravy along with a generous helping of wine. Usually the Yorkshire puddings are small, but if possible I prefer the plate-sized ones where the whole dinner can fit snug in there!

And before you ask, no we can't adopt you. Sorry. :P

Aye, many traditional chippies have been replaced by kebab houses. Visiting the chip shop is deeply rooted in my fond childhood memories. Fortunately there’s a good one in my area.

Iain: At Teeside you have the Barnacles resteraunt, it also has take out and they were always good, there is a little one that used to be a house on a corner up at Stanley in County Durham but they aren't open to late and its a bit of a trek from Chester Le Street to there just for proper fish & chips.

There are a few others but they sold ooout doing the whole pizza shop thing now and the quality went downhill on their original stuff
As long as I have me parmo, i'm a happy man.

Dalswyn: Last time I was in England, my plate had some hash brown on it. I inquired about the absence of black pudding and was told it was rather an Irish/Scottish thing. Can you confirm that?
It seems plenty common in the northwest of England. I'll bet you were down south, I think sometimes they forget that England extends north of Birmingham.

Edit: and no Leeds, I don't so much have a problem with you, as to the interpretation of train timetables by your useless twat station guards. o______O

Indeed, I was sojourning in London. As much as I would have loved touring Britain, time and business constraints drew me to Black Hole on the Thames. At least I got to taste Indian food that tasted incredibly better that the tepid slush they serve here. ;)
3 Reasons Americans are Barbarians
1. They drink Coffee, not Tea.
2. They play Gridiron and Baseball, not Cricket.
3. They don't take their shoes off when entering a house.

Here in the South, we drink Sweet Tea and Coke, play Baseball and Football, and don't bother to put shoes on around the house.

Oh and isn't Australia just a prison colony, full of deadly creepy crawlies, and crocs.
