Barmcake

That's insane

Toasted Teacake is okay.

wtf?

I had to stop using b*rmcake when i moved south, people here have no idea what they are, it will forever be a BC to me though.

You don't have to go far to hear them call a b cake a tea cake. When I said to a guy in Burnley that teacakes are not s because they have currents in he said "nooooww tharts a current teeea cAke"!

I thought a tea cake was marshmallow on a biscuit then covered in chocolate?

My ex wife called it a 'batch' ffs

There used to be a caravan just outside Mansfield that did what they called "stotties" in that neck of the woods. It was like a dustbin lid with a full breakfast on it.

Now that's a bin lid

stotties the scottish name for it isn't it?

Warbies were selling them a while back, i ended up nearly dying after eating two on valentines day, literally had a blockage in me chest (true story) it was the most uncomfortable i'd ever been, made worse by the unsymptathetic better half at that point watching two of the most awful movies ever, the Tattooist, and something with frodo baggins in where he's a serial killer with mummy issues.


Well, this thread had already gone off topic.

as always, wikipedia is your friend
