Лондонский пенсионер раскритиковал яичницу с беконом в Йорке за мягкую булку и вялую ветчину

Why a York bacon sandwich disappointed this Londoner I READ The Press' excellent article from Emma Clayton about sandwiches with great interest. I am now quite ancient, originally from the East End of London, and when I first came to York many years ago went in to a popular cafe in the city and ordered a bacon sandwich, only to be astounded when it arrived at my table. A large flaccid very soft flat bread roll containing four shrivelled pieces of dubious-looking bacon! I took it over to the servery and spoke (very politely) to the lady serving there and said that I had ordered a 'sandwich' not a bread roll. She looked at me quizzically and said it was a 'sandwich', bacon and a bread bun! I am very careful these days to specify my desires when ordering any sort of 'sandwich' anywhere.

Why this is the wrong move and a waste of money IN trying to justify the latest ATTRO (Anti Terror Traffic Regulation Order) officials say they are seeking to reduce vehicle attacks. It is not vehicles that attack us. It is certain people who get into those vehicles that are the problem. People who support an ideology that is completely alien to British values and Western civilisation. Those people can just as easily kill with a backpack full of explosives, firearms and knives as they can by driving vehicles into pedestrians. The money being spent on futile traffic restrictions would be far better expended on tackling the root cause of the problem and dealing with those that seek to destroy our society. Matthew Laverack, Lord Mayors Walk, York --- Can you help and donate to flood appeal? DEVASTATING flash floods struck Nepal at the end of August, affecting around 65,000 people, including more than 22,000 children. Many people remain missing, and communities are facing an uncertain future after homes, livelihoods and vital infrastructure were swept away. Entire villages in the flood's path have been largely destroyed. In response, international disaster relief charity ShelterBox has launched an urgent appeal to help families who have lost everything and are now in desperate need of safe shelter and essential household items. In disasters such as this, ShelterBox works closely with local partners, including Rotary members, to understand people’s needs in Nepal and help ensure support reaches those most affected. Together, we are preparing to provide emergency items including blankets, sleeping mats, pillows and tarpaulins, helping families protect themselves from the elements as they begin the difficult task of rebuilding their lives. ShelterBox has a long history of responding to disasters in Nepal, including the 2015 earthquake, as well as major flooding across South Asia. That experience is helping us prepare to support families affected by these latest floods. Every donation, no matter the size, can help provide urgently needed support. I would urge your readers to consider donating to the appeal or sharing information about it. At a time when many families have lost loved ones, their homes and any sense of certainty about the future, public support can make a real difference.
