EGG-CELLENT THINGS TO ENJOY IN BRIGG


We spotted this giant egg-cup during a walk round Brigg at the weekend.
Have you any idea where it can be found?
The answer may come as a bit of a surprise: It's an item of equipment for youngsters to use at the Davy Memorial Playing Field between King's Avenue and Bigby Road.
Meanwhile, egg-citing early morning food is on the menu in Brigg town centre, the A-boards tell us.
Pop in to Dexters Ale House & Kitchen and take your pick from a menu including Eggs Benedict, Eggs Royale, Poached Eggs on Toast and a Full English Omlette.
Further along Wrawby Street, J D Wetherspoon's White Horse pub/restaurant advertises its breakfast fare with a picture of an attractive egg-based dish.
You can also get eggs for "brekkers" at other town centre outlets, including the Deli & Diner.
Years ago there was a UK marketing campaign called Go to Work on an Egg.
The great British public was told to watch out for the "Little Lion" emblem stamped on the shell to ensure our eggs were top quality.
Famous actor Sir Bernard Miles fronted the campaign, we seem to remember.

Dexter's advertising its varied egg dishes outside the premises.

Talking about food and such like...during my jaunts about the countryside, asked for a take-Out tea from one of those national coffee lounge chains.
'Small, medium, or large?'
'Medium, please',...'in the different sizes, does the size of the tea-bag vary according to the size of the cup?'
'No.'
'...so I'm paying 40p more than a small cup for a drop more water and weaker tea?'
'You must be.'
...............there seems to be some exploitation somewhere!
