Does anyone else agree the worst part about going to work is having to make ur lunch. theres never anythin in the house when it comes to making the lunch. i alway like to have something good in my lunchbox so i can have something to look forward too. another fella had a fricking club sandwich the other day i could have took the arm off him for it.

It's all about planning ahead LB. When I do the weekly shop on a Saturday/Sunday I always have an idea on what I'm going to have for lunch each day. If you buy plenty of sandwich fillers, apples, oranges, yoghurts etc you can't go wrong.

Point of order making a sandwich is not cooking unless your baking the bread. Cooking is a process which involves a oven or cooker.

What about a sandwich maker or a Geroge Foreman?

What are you on about, the bread was only out of the oven last night when I started the thread.

Oh god yeah, I got really sick of sandwiches there before christmas, the sight of ham nearly made me vomit. (and I only like ham and chicken sandwiches) THere's not much else you can take though. What's the alternative? Spend a fortune eating out.

Anyway, I cut the tomato last night and wrapped it in tin foil, put it on the bread at lunch today, went down great! Some of the boys made smart remarks, but I know they were just jealous.

not 100% but I think if you put salt on the slices of tomato, they wont wet the sambo.
Might render it inedible though - depends on how much salt you like

Butter each slice of bread to the edges or use mayo - the oils will help "seal" the bread.

Put a slice of cheese against each slice of bread, then layer the meat and veggies in the middle.

Very important:
Seed the tomatoes and COMPLETELY dry the lettuce and tomato with paper towels before putting on sandwiches.

By seed the tomatoes do you mean remove the seeds and the watery bits? But I like that.
I dont eat butter or mayo.

Didn't think it would look like I was passing it off as my own. Anyone else think that?

If I was a loaf of bread and someone wanted to put tinned salmon on me, Id walk away in disgust. I expect your bread will not hang around long enough to go soggy.
