Is there a reason for this other than their lordships are holding out to the last possible minute before they get subjected to lips and arsehole...
A taste with which they will be only too familiar in their rush for self-promotion, no doubt?

In the real world, you'd have to pay a lot more for a ham omelette and chips than £2.20:

Omelette and Chips

Served with two of the following fillings;

Cheese, Ham, Mushroom OR Tomato £5.30
Courtesy of the Station Café, Alton via 't Interweb. A fine establishment which describes itself as a 'Traditional Cafe catering for workmen, commuters, steam train enthuiasts, Watercress line users and motorcyclists, together with a van delivery service.'

Go upmarket a bit and a typical pub 'light bite' price would be £4.95 for a 2 egg omelette with chips, or £5.95 for the 3 egg version.

I loved this from (it had to be....) an American website:

Ham and cheese omelettes are so called because they have a ham and cheese-based filling.
No $hit, Sherlock!
