Hi all For years now my boyfriend whenever asking for a sandwich always says he would like 2. So I give him 2 slices of bread and cut it in half but he says this is 1 sandwich. He likes 4 slices of bread and then cut in half makes 4 sandwiches but I insist this is 4 sandwiches but he says its only 2. What does everybody else think please. Hes driving me insane. Debbie

One sandwich = two slices of bread. The big question is do you cut like a St George or like a St Andrew? St Andrew for me is occasional, St George is the normal!! Prefer home made bread if available.

John What is a St George and a St Andrew? We just eat white mothers pride medium sliced. And I hate it when I buy Kingsmill square medium. but it is oblong and wont fit in the kids Sandwich box I have to cut the crusts off. And why do they say Crusts are good for you because it is the same ingredients wheter on the outside or the inside.

I didnt go much on Benny Hill either. As he came from just up the Road they have named a Road after him.

Sorry Debbie, too manys puns in one day can seriously damage your health. Benny HILL - is the road on a slope?

Debbie

Debbie Report 3 May 2004 14:27

No John it is not on a slope, it is a straight new road with lots of new houses which are also straight. Debbie

Debby,make an agreement with your partner that if he wants a" sandwich " that means 1 round two slices of bread with stuff inside no matter how it is cut and then just double up and that becomes 2 rounds, get it... and I dont mean cutting the bread round lol,learned this from Mother who was waitress in posh hotel cheers Margaret

Debbie

Debbie Report 3 May 2004 19:05

Thanks Margaret I reckon the easiest way is to let him make his own sandwiches from now on. Debbie

Sorry Debbie, I agree with bf. One sandwich is two slices of bread even if cut in two or more. Two sandwiches is 4 slices of bread. Personally I cut horizontally and use Hovis Best of Both medium sliced.

Best of both thick sliced for me. Or home made tomato and olive foccaccia if I've been bothered to put the breadmaker on. Angela
