Yeah it really is a shocker of a sandwich. Got to say one of my favourite things is when they take a photo of people looking sad in these type of articles ...
Edit : image doesnt seem to work but it's in the article link

Hull man's fury over 'rip off' egg sandwich with not enough egg in it
Poor guy![]()
Best line: "I haven’t really got time to be touring sandwich factories".
That made me laugh, and I completely agree with him, I don't even see what good it would have done him to go there anyway. Basically they're just a rip off company and I don't blame him for complaining. Yeah, every company needs to make a profit but you still need to supply an acceptable product. Seems like most companies are on the rob these days.

It's nothing new. When I was 14 I had a Saturday job in a bakery (this is going back many decades, when kids were allowed to work before leaving school), first thing I was taught was how to pack a sandwich to look filled when it wasn't, we'd cut the tomatoes etc. as thin as possible, then cut them into strips of three and align the filling against the edge that could be seen from outside (back then they were in clingfilm) so that it looked like the sandwich had a nice filling, same for other things like ham, onions etc.) the remainder of the sandwich was filled out with marg.
It was at that point that I learnt catering companies are not in business for your benefit, my dad also worked in a bakery too and said the same went on there too, that was back in the 60's.

Hmmm this totally sounds like it belongs on the "Angry People in Local Newspapers" Facebook page, though for once I think he has a point! Economy of scale. If I can buy a loaf of bread for 50p then a factory buying thousands ought to get a discount. Also really prices in hospitals ought to be regulated considering we don't choose to be in them and the nearest "outside" shops tend to be quite farBest line: "I haven’t really got time to be touring sandwich factories".

That photo is golden though, will I get into trouble by saying his heart was probably greatfull for the lack of a filling in that sandwich, even if was just short term? They were doing him a favour by cutting down the filling content.
Get used to it mate, if the Tories have their way, you can expect more of this (they want to reduce the size of filling etc. and have max sizes for dishes because we're all fat).

Boy, 15 caught speeding on electric scooter given six points on future driving licence
I thought that you get 3 points on your licence for speeding? Considering that an electric scooter don't have a speedometer and that this is a boy who is too young to have a driving licence, I would have thought that common sense would have prevailed and let him off with a warning.

The problem with these strange things is the rules are written without regard for common sense, my son has one of the scooters but it's sat idle for almost two years after a do gooder PCSO read the riot act to him for daring to ride up and down the path outside our flats.
Because my favourite plane still resides in the top of a tree and the usual catapult + fishing line + lead failed, I've been looking into other ways of getting a line up to it, shooting it isn't an option (because guns are banned durr), a ladder won't reach because some clueless moron in an office somewhere dictated the maximum length of one, so the options are borrow my dads tower, or buy a crossbow. Funny thing in researching this, buying, owning and using the crossbow is perfectly legal (as long as you don't shoot people or animals), but it is against the law to buy or posses the green coloured bolts, yellow ones are fine, but not green ones.
Why? Because when they banned zombie knives, they put no technical specification on the object other than it was banned it it was called "zombie" was "green" and/or it could be used as an object to penetrate something. So technically, all green pencils are now illegal.
Sorry for rambling on, but the same laws that made a green pencil technically illegal, are the same no nonsense ones that put points on this kids license and will likely kill me if I'm in a fire (more on that in the pet hates topic).
