Be Excellent To Each Other

There's a great little sandwich shop in lancaster called 'Doughnuts'. Do any of you Lancastrian/ex-Lancastrian folks know/remember it?

I got two baguettes (about 12" long) filled with whatever was on my mind for our lunch and two luxury doughnuts (a caramel doughnut and a chocolate orange one, I think) and it was less than £5. All the ingredients are fresh and don't look plasticky. Anyone from around this way that doesn't know it - it's just to the right of Barclay's Bank, down the side road that passes behind the library.

Also: all their bread is freshly baked on premises throughout the day, so your sandwich is never rubbery.

I'd like to segue this topic and talk about breakfast cereals.

What is the preferred breakfast of choice here? I've just had crunchy nut, which are fun but make me want to instantly brush my teeth afterwards. Cheerios are also pretty fair. However the most superior cereal known to man has to be Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which is what Cinnamon Grahams used to be called. I think now they've changed the name to something even more absurd like 'Cinnamon Surprise', or something.

Anyway, they're ace, but I don't buy them. If I bought them I'd eat the whole box in one fat sitting. It's been done before.

They have a shop in Preston too Mimi, really nice stuff.

Subway's web site still promotes the Sub of the Day. Grim..., maybe it's only your franchisee that has done this montly promotion thingy. If I go past our Subway today I'll take a look.

Also: it's always worth asking in Subway if they have any voucher booklets. They normally leaflet local offices and generally have some behind the counter, packed with offers like "three footlongs for a tenner" and BOGOF and suchlike. It can take some cheek to get them out of the staff sometimes though, but you lose nothing for asking. Just say you work nearby and all your fat workmates have nicked the vouchers and you didn't get any. Works for me every time.

My breakfast cereal of choice is Crunchy Nut Corn Flakes (WITHOUT MILK!).

However, I rarely have time for breakfast in the morning as I always hit the 'Snooze' button too often. So I sometimes buy bacon sandwiches from the shop by London Bridge station. They're really nice, but I have been trying to cut back. On the days I manage to restrain myself, I will have either nothing, or a Muller Fruit Corner.

Breakfast is totally for wimps. I only avail myself of it when I'm hungover, in which case it'll be a full fry up (if at home) or a bacon sandwich (if on the way to work).

Sleep>>>>toast in the morning.

I tend to eat All-bran in the mornings.

I'm hungry now

And Barrow-in-Furness too. At least there was last time I was there. They used to do these lovely big baguettes with sausages and the whole thing drenched in onion gravy.. mmmmmm
