After church and antibiotic injection, we decided that we wouldn't go to see the Tate Britain Rude Britannia exhibition—HWMBO was too tired, and I would have to have him push me around in a borrowed wheelchair if I were to emerge from the other side with my foot intact. So lunch beckoned. I wanted a Subway BMT, but HWMBO says that we are poor and thus shouldn't eat that stuff too often. I wasn't up to arguing, so I set off to Tesco's to pick up various stuff for lunch and later on.

When I got to Tesco's (and London Stabbie really wanted to teach a lesson to the young kid who was trying to ride his bicycle in the shopping center), I happened to see the fresh bread rack, and there was a granary baton. A little light went on in my head. So I put that in my basket, bought some Swiss cheese, went around the corner to the about-to-expire case and found lots of cold cuts there. So I put several packets of ham in my basket. I bought one green pepper, one red onion, and several other bits and bobs. Then I was ready.

When I got home I made HWMBO a ham and cheese sandwich. But for myself, I split the granary baton, put in ham, Swiss cheese, lettuce, sliced red onion, sliced green pepper, some bottled jalapeños, and some mayonnaise. Cut in half and, voilà! A Subway-style ham and cheese sub.



I thought it was good enough for a picture.

did stabbie think of putting a stick in the spokes of the bicycle wheel? that usually slows 'em down fairly effectively.

No, that might have totally killed the little tyke, and I didn't fancy at least a night in the clink while the constabulary cleared me of murder and let me go on grounds of justifiable homicide...

It was very good. The only niggle I have is that the bread was a bit hard-crusted. If I find a baton with a softer crust I'll make another one.
