    Shandy drinkers are in no position to be pointing and laughing at anyone, if you ask me:D

    And on that note - it's lunchtime!

    Ive got to drive tonite....so really it's a non-alcohol pub drink I'm after.

    I would LOVE to have bacon and eggs. But I have to get up so early that I am up and out in 30mins. I can't stop to cook. I thought I might pre-cook bacon and eat it cold at work. Sounds great to me.

    I only counted the lettice because I can't get my head around the cups idea.
    I had 5 outer leaves, 3 sticks of celery, a 1/4 of an orange pepper and a 1/4 of a cucumber. Big dollop of french mayo from sains and a big piece of steak.

    I have no idea if that was 2 cups or 8 cups :rotfl:
