I'm glad he took the advice and planned a whole UK trip. He's seen so much and thrown himself into so much UK culture from fish & chips and an ice-cream by the sea to getting wasted in Newcastle and having a kebab in the street at 1am to eating all kinds of food from pizza to Thai food to curry to full English breakfasts to Greggs. Visiting Fred Dibnah's hometown and speaking with the locals about the local history, having some locally made food in an ancient pub is 50x more authentically British than walking around London looking at Buckingham Palace is.

Thank you, I'm not sure it's enough to sustain traveling full time yet, but enough to fund a USA road trip & other future travels to grow a separate travel channel, Spencer Joyce's World, link in description 😊 I'm doing future travels this way because unfortunately in order to fund the trip, Daniel had to dip into his half of the funds to make the trip happen, and as my best friend & brother-from-another-mother I don't want to make him do that for trips going forward since he has a family to take care of and I have more get-up-and-go capacity, hope you'll come over to the new channel & support my travel adventures😊 -Spencer

Your friend was right, we don’t wash eggs so don’t need to refrigerate them. But the comment that they are brown is because they aren’t bleached is rubbish. Brown eggs and white eggs come from different breeds of chicken. White eggs were common when I was a kid but they became quite uncommon in the UK until the egg shortages a few years ago when they made a bit of a comeback. I think because many people prefer brown ones for some reason the white ones tend to end up in prepared foods made in factories so the consumer doesn’t realise what colour they were.

Did you notice the very great difference between the Bolton accent and the Liverpool accent? And of course the Manc accent is different again. (N.B. The Romans called Manchester MAMUCIUM, the place on the breast-shaped hills. (I kid you not...) But, possibly following the mediaeval Welsh, the Latin version of the town scholars used became MANCUNIUM, so somebody from Manchester is called a Mancunian, or 'Manc'. I have been told that the colour of eggs depends on the breed of hen. Brown eggs are more popular over here, but you can get white eggs - they're actually slightly cheaper - and even blue eggs. My local shop sells duck eggs and goose eggs as well. And you can get quail eggs.

One small correction, some eggs (i.e all of them in America) aren't white because they've been bleached, it's purely down to the breed of the hen. White chickens produce white eggs and likewise brown ones produce brown. I've bought white eggs in the UK before and you sometimes get a mix of white and brown in one tray. He's right about the lack of need to refrigerate them though here, we ensure our chickens aren't unhealthy so they don't produce bad eggs whereas America don't care about the health of the chicken and instead just wash the wash the eggs they produce to remove bacteria as an afterthought

The egg thing isn't quite right. Our eggs in the UK aren't washed or refrigerated because we had a big problem with salmonella back in the 90s. Because of this egg producers have to vaccinate chickens against salmonella. This means that the inside of the egg is guaranteed to not contain salmonella. But if you wash the eggs you wash away the natural protective layer, called the cuticle, which would mean that water, and any bacteria present in it, could be drawn INTO the egg by capillary action.
