OF COURSE, it's Heinz and Colemans! Proper strong English mustard is the real deal.

I like most of the above suggestions

My perfect breakfast would be... lovely, fluffy, scrambled eggs made with a little cream, baby asparagus, whole grain toast and a bottle of Cristal

I wouldn't use such a thing, but similar items are sold by many other companies.

I actually learnt how to do Poached Eggs in a microwave BEFORE I learnt how to do it on the stove.

Get a proper tea cup (not a mug), put about 0.5cm of water in the bottom and break the egg into it. Microwave medium power for about 1min 30secs.

Remember to put a bit of kitchen towel over the top as ever so occasionally they explode.

I bought an egg poacher thing from Lakeland a couple of weeks back. It was rubbish. The egg sat in it for about 10 mins and did not cook. I have gone back to poaching in hot water with some vinegar and salt.

Anyway, I like the irregular shape you get when you poach this way. Perfectly formed poached eggs make me think of prison food, for some reason.

And how do you know about prison food?
