What are you having for breakfast?

Well today, oh breakfast fans, I went into (what I think is a Polish-owned) caff and asked for an omelette. This turned out to be a wholemeal wrap which had been heated and then beaten egg, some variety of tasty ham and cheese added and cooked so the egg had 'thin omelette' texture and the cheese had melted, then rolled up in a wrap-stylee, served up with picked cucumber and tiny peppers. Most yumsome. There's probably a proper name for it but I don't know what that is.
 
Sugarless black coffee, same as every other morning, except when I'm on holiday, then it is smoked salmon on brown rolls. (They even have a bowl of lemon wedges next to the smoked salmon.).
 
That's an old wives tale. You don't get constipation from eggs unless your diet is low in fibre.

Must remember to buy some more eggs tomorrow - down to my last dozen.

Aye, the term "egg bound" doesn't refer to eggs bunging you up if you eat them which doesn't actually happen, it is a misappropriation (to describe constipation, not necessarily egg-related) of the term for a life-threatening avian medical condition whereby a hen (of any bird species) cannot successfully lay an egg and it is stuck in her. :(
