Quitting smoking

[Highlander]

If you don't want your children and grandchildren to have to deal with your premature death seriously consider giving up.

Hey...  lets not stop at smoking.

What about obesity?  Almost as big a killer as smoking according some sources - so that’s cream cakes and fatty foods out the window.

But wait, there's more.  New guidelines in the UK suggest no more than 14 units of alcohol per week (for a male) which equates to six beers. 

Oops, almost forgot   red or processed meat.  No more than 70g a day or you'll die a horrible death.

Soon as I finish this 227g burger, topped 2 slices of mozzarella and pork scratchings, I'm gonna wipe out that box of twelve Krispy Kremes.  All washed down with a dozen cans of Tennents lager.

Then I'll crack open another carton of duty free Camel Lights.

Bliss...

I bet you have lots of eggs for your breakfast as well

Softly scrambled and sprinkled with fresh Parmesan, black pepper and Malden salt  on whole meal toast - simply divine!

Yep, cooked in goose fat, with streaky bacon, black pudding and lorne sausage.  I do try and keep things healthy though - I only have one slice of fried bread and one tattie scone.  Oh and low sodium brown sauce.

   The best thing I ever gave up was listening to the experts.

I am a big fan of black pepper. Strangely, scrambled eggs is one of a very small number of things where I prefer white pepper

  Tinned chopped tomatoes, warmed in a pan with a drop of cold tea, served over buttered wholemeal toast, smothered in black pepper.

  Heaven.  The mention of lorne sausage and black pudding got me dribbling.
