In Huddersfield if you ask for a teacake you get a bap. If you want a proper southern teacake you have to ask for a currant teacake.

And the following comment in the Sheffield Forum is priceless "A Lancastrian is just a scouse with a labotomy (sic)". Who's the one with the lobotomy?

In my part of east Lancashire it's a teacake.....but then we were right on the Lancs/Yorkshire border.

Re: Strange Business Start-ups
Are we talikng body parts again? as with the baps.
A friend in the UK had a wedding cake, which was made up of hundred of fairy cakes or buns or whatever they are called, I thought it was crap.
I for one felt a bit strange being presented with a pink and sliver creation, with metallic looking "dust" sprinkled on.
And I was not the only one who did not eat it, an old fella there thought it was an ornament to take home.
Give me the good old fruity wedding cake, the stuff that can break your toe if you drop it.
