Currently muesli and semi-skimmed milk and a de-caff tea.
Next week when I sort my life out, I'm going back to fruit smoothies.

I actually enjoy both of the above.

Traditional English breakfast is a fry-up.
My parents have a healthier version every weekend. Theirs consists of:
Grilled bacon, grilled tomato, poached egg, baked beans, toast
Sausage (links) if they are ringing the changes, fried bread for Dad on a special occasion.

Standard can include mushrooms, tinned tomatoes, black pudding, any other type of eggs (fried is typical)
Options now tend to include coffee (rather than tea) and hash browns

The hotels I've stayed in in France, Italy, Spain have catered to Eurpoean guests (as opposed to mainly Brits). The standard breakfast there seems to include various meats, cheeses, bread products and cold hard-boiled eggs. Always with the eggs! Oh and yoghurt. And honey.

If you're half-board or B&B you can have a real feast and miss lunch. DON'T fill your pockets though! There are dire warning in all of the dining rooms warning patrons not to remove any items from the restaurant. Funnily enough, they're all in English
