Yes but you can have cheese scones that have cheese in them. You don't put cheese in cakes.

That would be ridiculous. You would have to call it Cheesecake!

We’d use the Jaffa Cake defence which has legal precedence. It has cake-like qualities.

If we start defining our rules based on what Yorkshiremen do we'll end up in a whole lot more trouble.

Scone (rhymes with con) = the correct way.

Scone (rhymes with spoon) = a town in Scotland.

Scone (rhymes with moan) = no such word.

And it's butter, then jam*, then cream.

Butter ..... err no, just no.

Cream first.

Its Scone as in traffic cone not Scone as in gone.

Jam first - trying to spread jam on cream is akin to trying to hold a greased piglet

A real problem at the petrol pump today. I wasn't paying attention but was impressed when the pump clicked off at exactly 40.00 litres, but should I have added another 4p to round up to £60.00?

Even my wife will start swinging if one mentions butter I only have butter if she is annoying me

I am obviously some sort of hybrid as it is jam first - spread, cream dollop, scone as in cone (the wife says scon), with a cup of tea.

Where in Devon? Beer then Seaton for me - although I moved away when I joined up in 1989.

Seems to me all you scon/scone, butter/not butter, jam/cream, cream/jam fascists are missing out on some delicious treats...

Regardless of whether you do it the Cornish way or the Devon (wrong) way I think we can all agree that those who would cut their scone in half, spread the jam and cream on one half in whichever order, with optional butter, and then put the other half of the scone on top of it are heathens of the lowest order.

Whatifery of the highest order. Surely no-one does that. I mean, really, surely no-one does that.
