Been without hot water since the boiler threw up an error code on Sunday morning. Tried to get someone in through Checkatrade but understandably didn't get any bites on a Sunday.

At least the dishwasher doesn't need the boiler to run.

Awkward to fit in when you want a shower though.

Microsoft has released an update of teams and its fucked it up and looks shite

Cauasin gall sorts of problems for us at my work. The whole point of this "New" Teams was that it had supposedly been rewritten to address the fact it was slow and a resource hog. It's even worse.

The look is awful, pure white and cannot find a dark mode, its lost some groups I was a part of. Not good if its heavier on resources than the old version as well. shite

My Teams tried to switch on me and I shut that shit down and reverted to the classic version. You might still have it as an option too?

Yep, I stuck to classic but on Friday, without me even knowing, it forced the update sometime during the afternoon, it was ok until about 4pm then it had changed - over half the dev team are still on the old version, the rest have been forced onto the new one and the others are dreading it.

I’ve just had a prompt to update this as well. Declined it but the only default was to update when I’m not using Teams so seems like it’s going to happen very imminently anyway. Sounds like something to look forward to.

If any brit has gone over there saying we must have one of those submarines shaped sausage butties, then shame on them

British cuisine provides the best breakfast in the world, its not even close

As far as i'm concerned a full English breakfast should not have fried/grilled tomatoes on it, & never tinned chopped tomatoes either, [as that's used for tomato based dishes like bolognese, & chilli], but tinned plum tomatoes.

A full English breakfast for me is, tinned plum tomatoes, double sausage, double bacon, double egg [scrambled egg instead now & again], mushrooms, beans, couple of rounds of toast, & hot drink.

Schoolboy error, at least 2 slices of black pudding, & a load of hp brown sauce.

I don't like tomato ketchup on an English breakfast, it's because of the mix of tinned tomatoes & tomato sauce in the beans that it goes better with brown sauce, go to brand is branston baked beans, i don't like heinz beanz

And tomatoes should be nowhere near a cooked breakfast. Or preferable any meal (bar pizza/pasta). Fucking devil’s food.

Their BBQ sauces are rank. Just vinegar and sugar with a background hint of spices. Totally overpowers the flavour of the meat.

What's wrong with tasting the actual meat? A bit of seasoning and maybe a marinade to enhance the flavour (and/or tenderise the meat)

Sadly imported over here, too. 'Hunter's Chicken' is disgusting.

That's absolutely awful looking.

What is that shit between the egg and cremated bacon?
The sausages aren't cooked evenly.
Is that a slice of buttered bread?

A proper Ulster Fry is infinitely better than whatever that muck is.

You fussy bastard

Im not stating thre picture is the best example, however a British fry up is the best in the world,
if we are getting regional, isnt an Ulster fry basically a butty bread?

Don't get me wrong, I'd definitely eat it

Potato bread, soda bread, bacon, eggs, sausage, optional black and white pudding.
Extras like beans and mushrooms mean it's no longer an Ulster Fry, although I do add them both on occasion.

White Pudding is great

Note the English are trying to claim it all for themselves before regional improvements

As I've said before, the Full English is just the base upon which the Scots/Welsh/NI have improved upon. Sorry but the Full English is the worst of the British breakfasts.

Leave this thread and take your square sausage with you!

Also, an Ulster fry is good, but potato bread is pretty weird and massively overrated.
