Unfortunately when Britain slipped from a First World country to a second, the newsprint became the kind that came off on your sleeve and of course on any of the food it wrapped. Since then, unprinted newspaper had become de rigeur (since polystyrene trays are for oafs who don't care that the Barrier reef is becoming bare rock and dead coral). Printed newpaper is best kept for wrapping foodwaste for recycling. It certainly isn't worth reading.

So, I guess , unless you've had Warburton's Crumpets dripping with butter and a cup of Yorkshire tea, can we judge?



Hmm, yeah I think it's safe to say, those two are definitely doing it wrong.

But wouldn't that be a fun name for a rock band?

Ah yes! People think it's all sex, drugs and Rock n Roll but some nights, you just want to go to bed with a cup of hot milk, a good book and one of those pillows you put between your legs to stop your knees banging together...oh, and a buttered crumpet.

I too like what you call marmalade, on home made bread or toast, but with coffee. But when I first went to England, I was confused why it was always made with oranges. We use the word 'marmalade' for what the English call Jam.

No we have jam and marmalade.


Marmalade is the term given to all preserves made with citrus fruits:
Orange marmalade, lemon marmalade, lime marmalade or any combination thereof.


Jam is made with any other fruit: berries, apricots etc.
