minor things that make you fume

Chill out gok wan.

You're one of them, aren't you?

People who decide to deviate from the universally-accepted spelling "brekkie".

I didn't go to Harrow or Eton, tory spelling

Yes I am a mole man

If spelling words correctly makes one a Tory, does it follow that in order to be a Labour member you are required to be wrong?

To be honest I'm firstly fuming that I've taken so long to comment on something that I've fumed about for so long.
Blokes (and women even) wearing sliders and socks, what a gauche fashion statement with footballers in particular guilty of.
All that after the skits towards people wearing sandals with socks.

Hating on this too,

Doing the most unusual thing a brit can do.
Complain about food.
So ordered a breakfast which looked lovely.
Cut into the sausage, cold in the middle.
So I just left it,the sausage .
The rest was good.
So paid my bill.
Even give the waitress a tip.
Then said "btw the sausage was cold in the middle ".
She looked at me as though I had six heads.
Never even thanked me for the tip.

I was at a German restaurant in Brisbane once, ordered the brattwurst platter. Had it before and it was really good.
Start eating and the first 2 sausages are lukewarm at best. When the waitress pops over and asks how is your meal, I mention a couple of the sausages are a bit cold, but don't stress, I will still eat it.

2 minutes later, head chef comes over to apologise in person and gives me and the person I was with a free drink each.

When I go to pay the bill, they didn't charge me for my dinner, which I then complained about because I had eaten it, but they insisted they wouldn't let me pay for it, so I bought 4 schnapps as a goodwill gesture instead.

Been back there every time I went to Brisbane.

I believe ABFC is in Scotland as well, where the breakfasts are usually far superior with tatty scones and haggis

Throw a fruit slice in ,easy on the haggis, and we're talking breakfast.

No it's a reference to the origin of the word brekkie, much like ruggers and other words they came up with back then, they all orginiated from the upper class schooling system in the 1800s.

Interesting. Didn't know the etymology stemmed from that source. Thanks!

Yeah not every meal is going to be perfect. It’s how the place reacts to it that counts. Nothing worse than having to complain and the staff/management offer nothing back.

With the big wooden paddle of Jägermeister shots?
Did you get the little free ferry across the river to the storey bridge hotel
