    Every Saturday morning, post football, my favourite meal of the week. Oh, and I eat 20+ eggs a week, always have.

    I've rediscovered the joys of sausage, egg and chips in the last few months. Whenever Mrs Ilkley is away it's always on the menu plus bread and butter.  Probably good for my longevity that she's only away once a month on average.

    Scrambled on toast for breakfast yesterday, followed by sausage, egg and chips for tea, then two scotch eggs in the pub, plus scrambled on toast again this morning. 
    Started to fancy an omelette...

    Same - late night snack last night, fried on toast this morning. Got a load of leftovers in the fridge to get through so will be making a giant spicy tortilla tonight which is a personal favourite of mine.

    Can we change this to the egg thread .. I love them. Boiled, fried, poached, coddled, scrambled, omeleted ( is that a word ), steak tartared, soufleed. ??

    I watched the Tyson Fury interviews and I was shocked at how much I related to his experiences with mental health. It shows money and success doesn’t matter. Granted, I’ve thankfully never been at the crossroads of if I want to live or die and I don’t think I ever will. I’m incredibly lucky to have people in my life who care about me. It helps ease any negative thoughts that might pass through my mind. 
    I unfortunately take things very personally and I believe it’s down to past bullying at school for years and mental scars sometimes don’t heal fully. It’s so bizarre because I can have someone yell at me and not affect  my day. However the next day, a tiny harmless remark can trigger the emotions, which is frustrating and has the knock on effect of having negative thoughts. I can go into my shell and not talk to anyone and even go to the work toilet and cry. Mental health does the stranges things and it’s unpredictable nature sadly costs lives.
    In the interview, Fury mentions the time he had a panic attack and felt like dying. Having experienced a severe one, it flooded back the memories. You can’t breathe, you’re passing out, you can’t hold your waters, it’s the worst nightmare imaginable. And 18 months on, I still haven’t fully recovered. Granted, it’s about trying to retrain the brain but you can easily lose focus and the airways mentally close up. It’s a feeling like nothing else. 
    I know what I have is genetic and my sister is mentally unwell. Where as I’m open to talk about my issues, nobody can talk about it with her. She’s aggressive if you talk about her condition which is sad, so sad. But that’s not her fault. It never will be.
    Mental Health has a stigma and is a silent killer of men and women. If I ever raise money it’s for mental health charities. We hear a lot about it being difficult to spot and I agree. I can quite easily put a poker face on for most of the day if needed. This is why we need to encourage more folks to get involved with talking about feelings and stop shying away from issues. Talking is the hardest yet the best starting point on the path to get help. And thankfully I have a platform to express my thoughts ??
