Cor, you don't half take these things to heart!

I don't think I've ever seen the 'full English breakfast' here. Rather something that looks almost identical and is known as the 'Aussie breakfast' is served...seems popular enough too! Maybe minus the chips...but if you fancy those you could just brush them off your shoulder!

Yeah but lets be serious, no-one would buy it if they called it a full English breakfast, the full Aussie breakfast on the other hand is a national icon

Nope. Your post #22 is there in black and white - 'whoever decided a pizza needed an egg ? '. Well, the Italians when you were trying to say it was Aussies, but don't let that little fact intrude into your little bizarroland fantasy world.

Don't be daft. The Irish copied it when they ran out of spuds.

Irish pork sausages on a full scottish make it partially irish, so no. Plus, the fried potato bread is an irish thing, I think.

We may have copied the idea of 'breakfast' but we then mastered it adding the black and white pudding, I believe.

I read on the internet somewhere that the full Scottish is actually a poor imitation of the full Welsh without the leeks.

I love black pudding but sometimes wonder, who was poor enough to consider eating congealed blood and oats.

Turns out Potato bread is french. But, we perfected that also.

The only thing in the world that gets me homesick instantly is the thought of having a proper full irish breakfast. Sure, you can get close to it by making it yourself over here. But its never the same.
