    REAL bubble & squeak, now that is a blast from the past. Always loved that.

    Syrup butties - No
    Sugar butties - No
    Sauce butties - Yes
    Any dark meat stew with beetroot - Yes
    Bubble & squeak - Oh yes.

    How about crisp butties?

    We were too poor to afford crisps, so as a youngster, no to crisp butties.

    Now slightly off topic - were lucky bags the biggest rip off ever?

    They used to have a little seed in the middle, if you were patient enough to suck them instead of crunching. You can buy all these old fashioned sweets again, cost a fortune - you'd have to sell them for 10p each to break even <laugh>

    I've not seen you ask mate my bad! Not too bad, still swollen but I can walk on both now (just). Will find out more on Wednesday when I have them x-rayed. 30 minute walk to the train most days doesn't bloody help.

    Which one would that be?

    Serious for a moment. A cob can be crusty or soft (I was taking the piss earlier ), but only if you're a misguided Southerner (Midlands might as well be South as far as we're concerned)
    It's called a barm-cake in Liverpool. The word cake pre-dates the invention of sweet confectionery. It is also used in some areas for other things such as a cake of soap (try sticking one of those in yer cake'ole).
