As the previous post describing our local butcher's fair may have suggested, the food in the English countryside is not quite what we're used to. Take for example the breakfast consumed in Appletree Cottage by Alex this morning: Quail's eggs (4, as they are very small) with two pieces of "streaky" bacon (read "fatty", even though the bacon back home is far fattier), toast with red current jelly (not jam) and tea (not coffee). Working our way up to the local pigeon and blood sausage!
