      The best black pudding comes in cake like slabs rather than in round sausage form.

      I’ve got a picture of breakfast from Christmas day.

      White Pudding top left. Black Pudding top right.

      Because it was Christmas, I already had in the Waberthwaite Cumberland (thin) sausage (rather than chipolata) and Streaky Bacon.

        Now Cumberland sausage that’s the way to go, I had family up in the lakes, and always went to the local butcher and brought some home with me :)

          Man talks sense. Waberthwaite is the best Cumberland has to offer too.

            This is an old photo and the sausages are a little over done but that was an awesome breakfast!

            Cup of tea included!

                  One small point is white pudding is not vegetarian its made of pork and fat and stuff. But no blood. :-)

                    No blood? Sounds vegetarian to me.

                      Whaaa, MrWyrm said it was made outta oats and herbs and that sounded yummy, but now it just sounds like a sausage with oats and herbs :|

                      I don’t like black pudding…I don’t think, I haven’t actually had it.

                        It’s not like sausage, it’s like a suet fatty oaty herby stuff. I’m sure I’ve seen vegetarian white pudding.

                          No its better than sausage and it does have herbs and suet and oatmeal but also pork. That’s not to say u can’t get a veggie one tho.

                          You should try black pudding its great stuff don’t be put off by the blood its really tasty and just makes it black.

                                I suffer really bad with not being able to sleep, so after a few days I just crash… K calls them sleep days as she just leaves closes the blind, curtains, bedroom door and leaves me there for as long as I need

                                  Wow sounds somewhere between awesome and terrible.

                                  I like the sound of the sleep day but the not sleeping the rest of the time sounds horrendous.

                                    Longest between sleeps was 5 days once, and that just gets painful your body starts to give up but your brain carries on!

                                    These days I can manage 2-3 hrs a night if I’m lucky, then a sleep day comes along on the 4th night and I’m out for 12-17hrs solid

                                        Cannot really imagine how do you manage to do that… if I have just one harder day I fall asleep whenever I stop moving. You’re pretty tough!

                                          Just the way it is man, theres nothing I can do to change it been this way for years.

                                          I went to see a doctor about it, and all he could say was it was down to habits if I’m lucky I will grow out of it (i’m still waiting). I used to work across a lot of time zones so you get what ChrisJ calls “virtual jet lag” you are never a sleep when you should be and then you body clock gets out of sync and the cycle starts again.

                                            “When you have insomnia, you’re never really asleep… and you’re never really awake.

                                            Great film but the reality sounds tough!
