Roll, Barm, Cob, its called a Batch round here! 
Donât worry too much, come January 1st there will be an EU Directive and they will all have to be called baguettes. 
Am I the only one who still eats plain boring old sandwiches!! 
Someone asked me the other day:âAre you local?â
I said âI am when Iâm at home!!â
Dan.
So when you go âoop Northâ, what`s a âbankâ?
Do they mean âhillâ?
Bloomin` foreigners!

Gonna throw a spanner in the works hereâŚ
Where I come from, we call them Roundabouts⌠why do you lot Oop North call them Islandsâ â ?.. and island is in the middle of the road where pedestrians cross⌠isnt itâ â ?
Or a large piece of rock/earth sticking out the sea somewhere⌠Isle of Wight comes to mindâŚ
Views pleaseâŚLOL
And what about those bloomin âDoughnutsâ you Northerners keep talking about when giving directions? Sorry, back to Bakery stuff againâŚ

Old sandwichesâ â ? You must be a TOG. 
Am, i the only one who has muffins. 
Jonboy if you was in Burnley you could have nipped up the road five minutes and we could have done afternoon tea,
And if someone has a cob on ( as in a bad mood ) 
does it mean you have a barm on your head
Hang on, aint a Cob something with lots of corn on??

I thought it was only Dundee that had Circles instead of donuts.
One night, I loaded bottles for Italy, round about Wakefield. Went to the chippy and got pie n chips. I saw Teacakes on the menu and thought âgreat something for puddingâ. When I got back to my wagon, looking forward to a teacake, normally toasted and buttered with currants n sultanas in it. I opened the bag and a big flat soft roll with margarine. Yuck
You try America, where they call Burger buns âBiscuitsâ
That one had me scratching my head for days until I got up the nerve to order one, whilst praying that my burger didnât turn up between to pieces of shortbread⌠

Hahaha!! Superb!
Yeah, up thissa way we call 'em breadcakes, teacakes, baps or buns. Barm(n)cake, rolls (I always think of things like Swiss rolls), cobs, barms are nonsense. However, if I ask for a teacake then it comes with currants in usually, although not sure why Iâve never got a âplainâ teacake before; maybe they know Iâm a local 
And yep, we have banks up here lad. We 'ave a few 'ills too. I used to call them roundabouts roundabouts too, but when asking for directions (rarely) everyone calls them islands so I call them that now to avoid confusion. When getting directions for a place in MK and the gent was referring to the islands the joke about the bridge/ferry didnât go down wellâŚ
Best thing was when I lived up in Glasgow for a year. You donât get your notes or paperwork signed up there, you get your lines signed.
And when you have to turn round you get told to do a âburrilyâ What the hell is one of those â â ?
What the hell does âockeye thanooâ mean too ?
I remember doing a double-man job with a lad from Easterhouse âEastahooseâ and I was sat in the wagon having a bite to eat and I could have sworn he said âcan you beep the hornâ so, puzzled, I did. It later turned out heâd said âcannae gizza harnâ (in English translated it became âcan you give me a handâ). Strange.

On the subject of food in the USA, in 2001 I was over there and decided to have the chicken dumplings on the menu. Iâd heard the song they often play on Radio 2 about " Mommaâs chicken dumplings " and was expecting a big round dumpling like my " mommas dumplings ". Shocked and surprised to find that over there chicken dumplings are flat,white,bland strips of what a spotted dicks skin looks like if cooked the old fashioned way in a cloth. They did taste like chicken though.
