I can do a mean Halifax accent. Thats where I'm originally from....

My glaswegian is shite tho. Had many a blank expression from the barman whilst ordering a pint on our frequent trips north.

We can not have the tea cake war on here. 

Most of the poor buggers would have no idea what the hell we were on about

[Stu]

Breadcake all the way @NeilM 

 

[Tiggie]

I swear if I hear the breadcake argument again I'll flip!! 

 

I hear it constantly at work, probably on an almost daily basis from customers

WTF is a breadcake? Cant be a thing. You can have bread, you can have cake but in one thing? Only a tyke could come up with that!

[Tiggie]

[rennie]

I could just go for a chip buttie right now!

Exactly because it'snot a breadcake

[Tiggie]

Thing is mate. We can't agree on one name.....

And yes. It's a serious thing.

Must admit though, only Yorkshire people could have the tea cake war. 

It basically boils down to this..

Where i am from its a tea cake and this is the correct terminology. 

Where Stu is from, they, for whatever reason call said thing a breadcake???

It manifests itself in the mist serious form when people like I frequent the east coast and stubbornly refuse to adhere to their strange ways.

That's like a mixed marriage....lol

It can be amusing at the shop when someone from another part of the country asks for a barm cake etc as the teenage staff we have don't have a clue what they are been asked for

Aha! The truth is out! What you"re really talking about is a barm bread! Any fool knows that's the real name for such a delicacy. Only daft Yorkshiremen could get cakes into what is obviously a kind of bread. Barbarians.

It's not just the wild heathens in Yorkshire though. In the North West we know them as barmcakes. Which is of course their correct title.

What's all this mixing perfectly good bread with cake? Down south so far as I know they just call them buns unless they are posh in which case it's rolls. Of course real men eat stotties.

Cos bread is like a loaf of bread, but cakes are small and round.

And all this over a bun.

 

Fish n chips up here average 7.50, must be predominantly fat greedy fookers that's catered for as me and the wife struggle to eat one between us.

It is not a bun you villainous herectic. It is a barm.

 

There are some things which may be compromised on. This is not one of them.

[Bender]

Bun bun bun bun, and a stotty is not a bun
