@Cleoriff I too like black pudding with a cooked breakfast 
I find I'm alright if I eat certain foods early in the day ... otherwise it's reflux problems & heartburn at night-time

A bit of wheaten soda and some potato bread on that one.

Black or white pudding, both are tasty but can be heartburn-inducing. I prefer the black pudding to sausage, but crispy bacon is a must, @Cleoriff.
Yummy ideas thoughties still trying to win a round with an egg 
Not longies woke up, I would slay a dragon for a full breakfast,
Crap i have nothing in hmm shopping to do .-.

Last time I put an egg in the microwave it took me half an hour cleaning up the exploded splattered mess! 😩
Boiling those times are perfect @Anonymous'smum but I do it/did it on the cooker.
As for scrambled... could never do it ! My dear wife never taught me but she made brilliant scrambled egg 😢 I've looked in cookbooks and online and they seem to put all sorts of added ingredients... far too complicated for the ready-meal bung-it-in-t'oven King!,🤣🤣🤣
Yes love a boiled egg .
Scrambled is hit and miss with me i get pyrex measuring jug break in 2 large eggs stir with fork get milk pour in about half way up jug
Bung in microwave 2 mins take jug out and stir mixture bung back in micro and another 2 mins .
Keep stirring til it either turns into scrambled egg or boils over in micro and you have a mess

Omelette now you can make these various ways
Souffle omelette : Seperate 3 eggs . Yolk from white.
Put in seperate bowls mix yolks then beat egg whites til they are stiff
Tip if stiff you should be able to turn bowl over your head and not get egg white all over you 
Add salt pepper etc to yolk mixture.
Fold whites into yolk mix with a metal spoon.
Heat a bit margarine til melted into frying pan.
Pour mixture in and cook when nearly cooked add other stuff ie grated cheese , mushrooms and enjoy.
Another way mix 3 eggs together with a bit milk salt and pepper and cook in frying pan.
Another way break eggs straight into frying pan and stir with plastic spoon it will soon cook .
I am making myself hungry lol.
My dad used to make poached eggs by boiling water in a pan adding vinegar then crack egg into boiling water. I have tried but end up with a mess haha .

On Sundays after a long walk in the pennines, us kids would (supervised by Mum) make egg soldiers (about an inch square), dip them in egg and roll them in grated cheese before shallow frying or grilling. On special days, we might be lucky enough to stop off in Hawes for gammon and egg with chips instead. Eggs seems to be common to the memorable meals.

For fried eggs, make sure they are very fresh. For scrambled (easiest to not mess up) or omelette, it doesn't matter so much so long as they are in date (or not too far outside!).
Good luck with soft boiled - the best I tried was to boil a BIG pan of water, then switch off the heat and put the eggs in it (2 to 4 at room temperature, not from the fridge) and leave for 4 minutes. From the fridge it makes it more difficult to cook evenly apparently, and can lead to cracking and leaks.
There are as many different ways to boil eggs "perfectly" as there are chefs in a discussion. I have read articles with times from 2 1/2 minutes to 7 minutes for set whites/ runny yolks.
