I'm glad someone mentioned them. Stotties are lovely.

You get stotties in the Peaks / Yorshire / North Derbyshire too. They are a really massive breadcake. Bigger than a barmcake. Breadcakes are a roll not cake. If you go about 10 miles down south your baps are cobs.

Breadcake? Breadcake? What the devil is that? It is like a catdog or a carbike.

Either bread OR a cake.

Garlic bread?

Barmcakes are far too big, unless you are a fat fer

And they are too airy, I was very disappointed when I tasted my first one

they are handy for getting a full fried breakfast inside though..

Or when the Uni has it's end of term "drink the bar dry event" where "once you're in you're in and no leavin you pussy" which starts in the morning. You'll be hungry. So the kitchen will knock up extra large burgers and put them in "Bin Lids" which I presume are the same as your Barmcakes. Fecking huge burgers.

Ehh..a roll, or perhaps a morning roll at a push

In Aberdeen, a roll (aka a buttery or a rowie) is a flat thing which can be eaten hot or cold with butter, jam or both.



Also, when I lived up there there was a sandwich shop where you could buy a "nudger" which was a kind of soft mini-baguette thing, a bit like a sub... prawn nudgers were very popular in the office

There is a Stottie Shop in Bowness-On-Windermere, which used to sell various griddled fillings in what as a Lancashire lad I am obliged to describe as being like a very large oven bottom muffin.

An oven bottom muffin is nothing like an English muffin, which is what Americans say when they mean a muffin what they normally mean by muffin, which is a kind of cake or bun. Clear?

I asked for a bacon and egg sandwich in Sheffield (sent someone else to get it) and they came back with a fried egg with bacon AND SALAD in a roll.

Apparently I needed to ask for a butty and they wouldn't have put salad in it.

Who in their right fking mind would put SALAD with a FRIED EGG and BACON.

Sigh.

And they are all rolls. All of them - a crusty roll, a granary roll, a finger roll. Breadcake is on my list of things that push my blood pressure to nuclear.

Large breadcakes are called Scufflers in parts of West Yorkshire.

"It's not a cake; it's a type of bread. Oh, and by the way, it's a 'bacon butty' - only poofs and southerners have 'bacon sandwiches!'"

Southerner = salad with everything

[Noger]

Southerners would have a Pancetta Brioche

[Dibble]

Barm cakes here (flattish soft bread roll. Ideal for 1/2 a dozen rashers of bacon and a fried egg, or four or five sausages (just for the purposes of scale)).

Although there is a butty shop that does "Devons", which are large barm cakes, and "bin lids", which are barm cakes the size of... bin lids. No, really.
