No Manolo cabeza de huevo, I did not...a simple google search may enlighten you to what it means...
If EHM took a few more minutes to check it out, perhaps he would have responded more appropriately. But it's easier to just use his beloved sock puppet meme and hope someone finds it humorous.

El Hijo de Mangu, who had to change his username here because of being previously unwelcome, thinks he knows everything about England and doesn't miss a chance to knock it. But it seems he's never heard of the Reds. He apparently loves jellied eels though.

Ok Stock old boy. Let me back up a bit. During my pre DR years as an IT consultant I had the benefit of being assigned to Commerzbank in Frankfurt, where they were building a new eco tower as the global headquarters. I coordinated various trading floor technology initiatives for Reuters around their main realtime market data backbone known as Triarch. These projects brought me to the Commerzbank location in the UK on numerous occasions. While in the UK I loved getting on the train in my time off seeing the English countryside, meeting folks and sampling cuisine from different areas outside of London.

That said, whereas I have always since then appreciated the beautiful English countryside and some of the wonderful Brits I had met along the way, well the cuisine not so much.

As I said, coming back on topic, I have always ordered my Colmans and HP sauce from Amazon, having it run in by my favorite courier in Sosua. I am a big fan of Fish and Chips (hold the dreadful mushy peas) and London especially has great Indian food, but now that's not really English cuisine.

Have a blessed day🙏
