Well to be honest I got home only about two minutes after I normally do, but I thought I would be stuck longer as the traffic going the other way was awful. And I'd left work early (to get to the shops) so I guess my body thinks leaving work is time to eat (even if I leave work an hour or two earlier)

The breakfast wasn't that big (two rashers of bacon, one egg and a slice of toast), but I did drink a whole pot of tea with it so maybe that's the key.
