Early Lunch Anyone?

[AB Editor]

In about an hour, or an hour and a half, I will think of this man:


Man Says '*** It,' Eats Lunch At 10:58 A.M.

What is it that you crave at elevenses?

Do you deny yourself, or just head out to the nearest snackery?

I always want something like a pastrami sandwich with a Dutch cheese of some sort, and maybe some piccalilli.

[APugsLife]

I really wish I could have lunch at 11am. I don't mind what it is pitta, sushi, soup, Marmite on toast. But I don't see the point in waiting out till 1pm everyday when I'm hungry at 11!

[pixie373]

I can't get that link to work. I don't bother with breakfast before work, coffee usually works, so i have cereal usually about 11. I don't know how people can eat just after they wake up.

[AB Editor]

Me neither pixie.

[mazie]

Is that language really appropriate for AnswerBank Ed?

[albaqwerty]

That sort of language is not appropriate at any time.

Ed, your standards are slipping.

Now, if I was to report it, that would be a laugh as it wouldn't be removed.

[albaqwerty]

and would you expect us to chat on a Food and Drink thread?

[boxtops]

Hmmmmm

I've just had my porridge.

How come the title of that got through your own swear filter, Ed? Hmmmm.....

[emmie]

wonder what his company think of his attitude, most i know wouldn't put up with it, not so much the language but doing as he pleases, if he is not in work that day then it's his own time.

[mccfluff]

i usually have a cup of tea and biccies at 11 am, if i have made sarnies, i'll have one of those, but i usually have a salad or soup, which is a bit trickier to eat whilst on the keyboard

[AB Editor]

I've "fixed the language".

[boxtops]

That's more like it, Ed - consistency :-)

I could graze at any time, more likely in the morning than in the afternoon. I'm making sure I eat something for breakfast, even if it's only a banana and an Actimel yoghurt drink. These days I don't keep food at work as I don't have a permanent desk, so if I wanted a stash I'd have to lug it about with me.

[AB Editor]

I could do with that sandwich now.

My usual tactic is delaying my breakfast banana until now, but it wasn't possible today.

The problem with just having a cup of tea and a biscuit is it never ends at once biscuit for me. Biscuits have the problem of 1 packet = 1 portion - and as such they're banned from being anywhere near me.

[mccfluff]

i am about to have a sausage sarnie....

[mazie]

We're still eating Christmas cake for elevenses :o(

[AB Editor]

I'm hiding from sugar as well currently Mazie.

Mccfluff, you're a tease.

[mazie]

I'm not hiding from sugar Ed I'm just fed up of Christmas cake....Everyone I speak to at the moment is avoiding sugar, I really don't understand it.

[mccfluff]

i know and it was much lusciousness. local pork and chive sausages from pigs gambolling in the fields down the road on spelt & rye bread with a smidge of mustard and tomato - murph wasnt left out she had a fishy treat too

i think i might raid the biscuit tin now, im not avoiding anything (apart from mushrooms)

[mazie]

Mmmmmm Just hot a hot pulled pork baguette, now for that Crunchie :o)

[AB Editor]

"Everyone I speak to at the moment is avoiding sugar, I really don't understand it."

It's on trend.

I also find it easier to drop weight if I just cut something out completely.

Why isn't there a religion which worships the pig for all it's tasty uses?

[Mamyalynne]

Turkey and stuffing barm, wasn't up at 10.58.
