Great British Breakfast

There are many variants on what people consider to be an ideal breakfast.  The health conscious  would say perhaps breakfast cereal (love 'em), cereal bar, grapefruit, and fresh fruit juice or something along that line.  Some might prefer kippers with toast (enjoy that too), or just the toast with butter (or soft spread) or marmalade, or both (love it), and a mug of tea.  Some would perhaps go for scrambled or boiled egg (guess what, I like that also) yet some would go for the 'full monty' so to speak (my favourite).

So here's my idea of the perfect British Brekkie; swimming in grease and deliciously filling:

Bacon, fried eggs, sausages, baked beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, fried bread, and black pudding; all washed down with a large mug (1 pint preferably) of strong caffeine rich coffee.
However I am also partial to the slimmed down version of toast, scrambled egg, baked beans, and sausages.  Or alternatively fried bread, tomatoes, bacon, fried egg; of course both need to be washed down with a large mug of strong coffee to help wake me up with its caffeine hit.

My personal idea of a mini breakfast is breakfast cereal or toast, or both - or a bacon, fried egg, and mushroom cob; washed down with a large mug of strong coffee of course.

By the way I enjoy drinking tea, and probably drink as much tea as I do coffee; but my first drink in the morning just has to be a large mug of strong coffee (you should be sick of hearing that phrase now).

Anyway, this is my personal opinion but let's have some feedback here; I want you to all tell me what your ideal breakfast consists of.  Please email me at britishbellybusters@yahoo.com or leave a comment on this blog.

Thanks for your involvement!

Back with a vengeance, hopefully

OK, so I've been absent for some time - indeed the last entry I put on this blog site was way back in October, so you may be wondering why I'm bothering now I've been absent for so long.  Well I'm gonna tell you, like it or not, although I'm not really expecting many people to visit and read this particular posting as my readership has become rather slack due to me being rather slack - what goes around, comes around - or so it is said.

You see, I've found a little niche that envelopes my favourite pass-time with writing stuff on the internet and all my focus has been on that subject.  Spare you too many details here but if you click this link and check out my 'Trail Trekking' blog site and 'Facebook' page you'll get the idea.

To be honest with you the main reason I've come back to 'British Belly Busters' is because I've recently completed writing a book and eBook full of recipes - well I say 'writing' when what I really mean is 'compiling' as none of the recipes within it are my own but rather over 140 recipes I've gathered from the internet and set out (occasionally re-written) in regional order.  The point is, I need an outlet to promote this publication and make people aware of its presence in the hope that some will buy; this is partially why I've returned.  What's more I'm also working on another one.

Now I'm not about to try and sell here as it is a free platform and to try and sell from here is against the rules, unethical, and somewhat taking the mick!  What I do need to do however is to start putting up quite a bit of new stuff on here, notifying 'Pingomatic' that I've updated my blog every time I do with the aim of getting some decent readership figures before I try to expand into publishing.

I started this particular blog site way back in June 2011 and so far have received just over 500 page views since then, whereas my 'Trail Trekking' blog site I set up at the end of August 2011 and so far it has received well over 5,000 page views; that's because I've updated it regularly, so I really need to do the same here or at least try and increase the page views somehow.

So there you have it, I'll be posting on here more often from now on - or at least I hope so.  However if you would like more info on the book then blast me an email to britishbellybusters@yahoo.com and I'll sort it for you.

Thanks!
