Whats with 'Why no Cooking Bacon'?

#1 Post by Fliegenmong » Wed May 15, 2019 9:38 am

I don't know why anyone would want to live in Byron Bay....30 years ago it was lovely...now it is a dangerous over crowded sh!thole.....Jnr Fliegs and I used to go down further South on Surfing trips....and we'd surf Byron at Dawn
...but we'd be out again before most of the rest of the place woke up! Astonishing!...I guess a few Byron Suburbs of Multi Multi Million dollar houses skews things somewhat, but still...madness

Just realise that Australian dollars are just about half the value of GBP and the prices don't look that bad.

A vegan. Bet HRH PH is not allowed bacon sarnies.

He probably nips out to the local cafe for a bacon sarnie on the QT!

I once ordered a full English breakfast at a cafe in the centre of Birmingham. When it came, no bacon, which I queried with the waitress, who said :
"No sir, we don't serve bacon because of our Muslim customers."
I looked around and saw only white people and a couple of Caribbean looking blacks.
"And do you think that is attracting more Muslim customers?"
Another case of the asylum being run by the lunatics.

A Muslim guy who had a cafe on a street corner in Hull used to serve fantastic bacon sandwiches, when we got to know him we asked how he got away with cooking bacon. He replied " Holy Koran says its ok, you can do anything if you read Holy Koran right!"

I had Muslim customers who used to give me wine.
Nothing in Koran to say they can't buy alcohol.
I also had one who wanted to meet me for breakfast in a cafe. I said "You don't mind if I have bacon and eggs do you?"
And his reply was : "WTF do you think I'm going to have!"
