What are these dishes-

Bangers and mash
Bubble and squeak
Egg and chips
Pie and chips (not sure this is British)

Thanks- I have heard of these, and I might like to try these dishes, if I had any idea what they were.

Answers:
Bangers and mash are sausages with mashed potatoes and gravy. An awesome dish on a cold, wet day. Sausages got their slang term during wartime when they had a tendency to explode while cooking due to their high water content.

Bubble and squeak is another very old dish, used as a way of finishing up leftovers from a previous meal. The name comes from what happens when you cook it, apparently. You need a big pile of cold, leftover mashed potatoes, cooked cabbage, and (traditionally) cold, cooked beef from Sunday dinner. However, the meat is optional.

Chips is the English term for potato fries.

I hope you get a chance to try these soon.

"A Full English breakfast, or traditional fry-up, is a traditional breakfast meal in England. Fry-ups are no longer an everyday occurrence in most English households, but they are offered to tourists as traditional fare in hotels, guest houses and cafés, and occupy an important place in the English concept of the morning meal."
