Full english or continental breakfast

Porridge is alright but you'll be digging in your golf bag for a twix by the 7th, porridge is pretty low in calories even if it is high in soluble fibre.

When playing golf it's great because nothing puts you out of your stride and concentration like hunger pangs.

Very true.

I played at 11.30 t'other week (month) and talking to a guy on the 1st tee I said "I'm not really up for this, I could murder some food".
I then murdered my card. Worst round in 3 years. I was thinking about my Sunday lunch even on the 2nd fairway.

Porridge is good....lots of it.

I've just unloaded 6 rocky bars, 3 "duo" double deckers and 5 tunnocks into my bag for tomorrow. I expect some of them will still be around come September, but at least I won't be hungry.

Nothing better than feeling peckish and finding a Mars hidden amongst spare gloves and the odd kitchen sink.

Apart from a breakfast, is there anything else the Scots like that is remotely English??

I am reminded that the Scots are very much like Aussies. They will tell you that they both come from the greatest country in the world, but still live and work in England.

Melton Mowbray pies and Liz Hurley for a start!

Never claimed Scotland was the greatest country in the world to anyone and please don't liken me to an Aussie.

Not aimed at you. Just met so many Scots and Aussies over the years who are so unlike you

the Aussies do have claim to one great invention - the pie floater, pea and ham soup with a meat pie in it.
sadly, the brasserie at my club doesn't include it on the menu.

I think that I can see why

I love the Aussie and South African mentality to a party. It involves, loads of alcohol,a fire pitt and copious amounts of meat on the barbecue!

Place one of a napkin - see how much fat soaks out of it!

Napkin?? That's a bit posh, isn't it?

Private education dear boy - can't you tell???

I found a banana in my bag the other day - unfortunately it had been in there since March!!! It had decomposed so badly that it had fused with my PING beanie hat... NICE!!!
