I'll make sure to put on a fine spread of roasty butties for you at the cottage.

OK gravy on chips I'm prepared to (begrudgingly) forgive someone for (EXTREMELY DEAR TO ME, mind) - but smothering bacon (and sausages FFS, with collateral damage to adjacent fried egg(s)) with... with... maple syrup .... Now that is truly unforgivable; I mean, there's only so much a guy can take. :D

Nah, soz, IDGI.
Maple syrup is for ice cream, otherwise mess off with your near-saturated sugar solution.

One of the best breakfasts I ever had was waffles and bacon with maple syrup in a diner in Noo Yawk. COuldn't eat it every day though, or I wouldn't fit in the booths :)

Baking tray, foil, brown sugar, bacon, more brown sugar, drizzle with maple syrup, more foil, second baking tray, bake for 30 min until crispy, use to top burgers. Candied bacon. Fucking great.

Also if you object to maple being even adjacent to bacon then you're either not eating pancakes with maple syrup or you're not eating bacon with your pancakes, and either is demonstrably and objectively wrong.

In a minute I'm going to point out to Cavey the existence of chicken and waffles and blow his mind.

When I first moved to Manchester, I was most aggrieved to be handed a pathetically small, dry, entirely plain and suspiciously Asda multipack-sourced plain bread roll (not even with any butter FFS), having been offered - and ordered - a "barmcake". >:|

They really are, but there's plenty of them around. I've never seen a coffee IPA before. It worked really well.

It's Black Iris Brewery who are Nottingham-based. I'll see if I can get some bottles. It was called Morning Glory.

I find coffee porters are ok until you get to about half-way down the pint, when they outstay their welcome. See also, ginger infused beers.
