announcement

[kingcrawler]

that's a chocolate teacake!

I'd genuinely never heard of another kind until tonight

[Fivefingerjohn]

So it's 23:24 and I've got three pages open on my browser, efests, tunnocks Wikipedia page, and bread roll Wikipedia page

[Bignews]

Wow I'm talking to myself here, aren't I?

like your milk tweets

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Are you Bob Marley?

Classic.

[Bradders]

Obviously the word while exists everywhere. :-)

It's things like the shop's open while five. Instead of until five.

Yeah I know I'm Northern but I understand that

I would say "I'll be at work while 5" for example.

[Bignews]

i'm extremely confused by all of this being about as southern as you can get in the uk

[Gucci Piggy]

Wow that was a surprising read. Is it drinking evening oop norf?

Meanwhile, in our nation's capital:

lunch and tea

Scon not scown

And lots of confusing chat about tea, cakes, teacakes and various bread rolls that I can't make head nor tails of...

What do you call a breadbun down south?

While or until?

[incident]

I've been trying to follow this conversation for the last few pages, and I think I've finally figured it out. You're all talking about Cobs?

Well jut say Cob then ffs.

yes this is me too, although i participated in a survey once which found out that the language you use has some correlation to your class

Edit: i mean that much is obvious, but even down to the small things like dinner/lunch and tea/dinner... i can't remember the exact questions

Having lived in the north and south I'd reserve the word cob for a crusty roll. As far as I'm concerned muffin/breadbun/teacake are soft.

as far as i'm aware, a cob is what sweetcorn comes on, i really need to live further north for a while

just looked up a "Cob" and i would call it a crusty roll.

[incident]

What? No. A Crusty Cob is well.. Crusty. A regular Cob is soft.

It's clear noboby expects the next announcement soon

[Gucci Piggy]

Until not while (never heard that until today (or should that be while today))

Not really sure what a breadbun is. Maybe a roll or a bap? A quick Google found this, seems like a world of confusion...

http://bizarrebritain.com/bun-bap-stottie-nudger-or-barm-cake/

Yeah roll and bap are probably what I'd use after breadbun. None of this muffin/teacake/barm/BATCH(?!) lark.

[grumpyhack]

The VATman got very exercised a few years ago arguing whether a Jaffa Cake was a cake or a biscuit (I think at the time they attracted different rates of tax).

I think it was penciled in for that half hour Annie Mac wasted on her show playing songs of already confirmed acts. But The Who leak and announcement changed things.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Its not "while" either, its "well"..

"5 well 6"

Bobbins!

It's "5 wal 6".

[FuzzyDunlop]

It's "5 wal 6".

That's how southerns can tell which side of the pennines.

Its "5 well (or will) 6" on this side.

"5 wal 6" on the other.

And we call the things you walk up "sturs" rather than "stares"

[LondonTom]

I thought every evening was up there

What do you call a breadbun down south?

As far as I can make out, you mean a roll? :S

Well that was very confusing few pages to make heads or tails of! While/Well make no sense so ever! (5 well 6, would mean you are not sure of the time! and while just doesn't be right at all!) Its Until!

[H.M.V]

Its a bap! Teacakes are covered in chocolate. And can't even get my head around the while thing cos it hurt me noggin too much.

We seriously need a proper announcement.

Would an Eccles cake be a cake or a biscuit?
