Afternoon Bloggers,
Let me pose this important question to the "Melvyn's Realm" community, which is your favourite sandwich filling? Do you enjoy nibbling on a "Ploughman's" or tucking into a traditional "Ham and Pickle"?
Yes bloggers, today marks the 250th anniversary of the humble sandwich. In 1762, John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich, ordered beef served between slices of bread in none other than the Kent town of Sandwich. Sam Bompas reports that "He was a daring man to eat in such a way coming from his social background”, but bloggers, I believe that were are very fortunate to have such a wonderful convenient meal.
So bloggers, wish Happy Birthday to the sandwich in style!
Kindest regards,
Melvyn P. O'Shea
