Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

This is way beyond a normal Dutch breakfast. Sounds more like a good desert.

Most people eat sandwiches (mostly brown bread) for breakfast. Some with margarine/butter and hagelslag, (chocolate sprinkles) , others like it with cheese or jams . Or we eat musli with yoghurt. Some like a croissant or buns for breakfast. A boiled egg in the weekend and orange juice.

Hagelslag -from Albert Heijn? We were visiting mostly nature reserves so not very many museums. Many beautiful native plants

My mother told me how her Danish relatives would spread lard on their bread, called it "fit" (fat?).

Lancashire version = bread & dripping

Is this how you make it?

that's a relatively fancy one. The one I grew up with used just cooked potato and cabbage leftovers - and it's the best way to eat cabbage that I know

I was thinking it was fancy too - but looked really good. Ours had potato, cabbage, onion and often Brussel sprouts and bits of carrot. I am inspired to give it a go this weekend.
I am a big fan of cabbage so I would have to save some cabbage from other dishes in order to make it.

you remind me that we had that sort too, and that Brussel sprouts are a good addition - especially if it was composed of leftovers from Christmas dinner; it goes well with cold or reheated turkey.

I really like the word transferium - the one we visited many years ago had very many spaces for bikes!

Yes, we also have transferiums for cars . These are great to keep car out of city centres. If we park a car in the Utrecht transferium we pay little to park the car and get free tickets for the streetcar to the centre.

Also the green bridges and the bike + tractor lanes are great ideas

Here you got me puzzled. What is a tractor lane? . Green bridges for wildlife are great.

I like the trams.

I'm just catching up with the thread after not checking for a few days but all of this is easily changed in Settings on the phone.

The drop downs are notifications - you can stop all of that from happening in Settings.

There are no pop ups on the phone, so if you're seeing them, that's on any website you're visiting, which websites do that a lot and has nothing at all to do with your phone. Chrome browser has many extensions to stop popups and block ads.

I've been using smartphones since 2007 when the first iPhone came out and am one of those people who get the latest and learn the latest things, use all OS's, am very tech savvy and have been on the internet since 1992.

It's really not a Pixel issue. It is the only Android phone that isn't bloated with useless and unnecessary software and the easiest to use other than iPhone.

Unless you get one of those phones like a Jitterbug or just a basic flipphone that only does texts and calls.

I'll bear this in mind the next time I get close to throwing it down the field.

No! It's far simpler. Potato and leftover cabbage, mashed and fried.

So it's like colcannon fried
