Bubble and Squeak
"A wonderful old recipe which is an excellent base for an English style breakfast with the added benifit that most of the work was done the day before. My Mum used to make this when I was lucky, and we had the left over mash and brussels. Plain simple and wonderful. Let the mix crisp up to make it even better."

I served in the army for twenty six years then after a year off to rebuild the inside of a five hundred year old cottage became a diplomatic courier from which I retired a couple of years ago. Travel featured largely in my life which accounts for my great interest in spices and their different combinations for different flavours.
I have now retired from the active list of the Queen's Body Guard of the Yeomen of the Guard, see the photo of me posed in my uniform, taken over 20 years ago, I now have more medals and less hair. During my time in the Bodyguard I was promoted to Yeoman Bed Goer and then to Yeoman Bed Hanger, both ranks lost in history. Although retired from the active list I'm still in the body guard but no longer do duties, I remain a member for the remainder of my life.
The Bodyguard attends ceremonial where the Queen is in attendance, for example these can include State Opening of Parliament, State Visits, Royal Maundy Services, Investitures which is where the worthy are presented with their medals etc. I'm happy and proud to say that I joined the worthy when I was presented with the RVM by Her Majesty the Queen, a great day indeed.
If you are interested have a look at the web site: Yeomen of the Guard where there is loads of information on the Guard.
