By jingo I think he would refer to 24/7 as scallywags

I had to look that one up. .
That could be my brother when he was younger. And even in recent years he went around our dads house and swapped dads eggs for boiled eggs. Dad loved a fried egg for breakfast. He was straight on the phone to the grocer after he cracked a boiled egg into the frying pan. . It was hilarious but he wasn’t best pleased.

Speaking of eggs, I've watched a bunch of youtubers and they without fail either cook eggs and bacon or eat pancakes for breakfast.
Er.fellas...cereal is convenient, healthy, doesn't create mess....

Agreed but I love eggs myself. Although not every day.

Also love an egg (usually two) , cooked simply i.e. boiled with runny yolk.
My test: take it out of the boiling water, count to ten ''1 and 2 and 3.." , if it's dry it's perfectly done. If not pop it back for another 20secs, repeat if/as necessary.
Almost invariably I guess it correctly - male intuition, I guess.

Not at all. There are strong parallels between judicious driving and satisfyingly precise cooking.

The last of the 110 Pumas had a antistall first gear, could climb a wall, was brilliant.

Yes if you rush an egg you could get burnt, or a raw deal!

Now I’ll derail even more
Yes I had anti stall on my 2014 2.2L Defender and went up the Sani Pass after a storm without hardly touching the accelerator on the steeper stretches. On that day no mini buses were running and tour operator 4x4 vehicles were turning around near the top instead of going for a satisfying beer at the top in the highest pub in Africa. That was 2020 and the Defender walked it
