All these years of Coronation Street later and I still don't know the difference between baps, butties, buns, barmcakes, sarnies and sandwiches (although I suspect the latter two are the same). I think there are a few more colloquialisms for these things but I can't think of them off the top of my head right now, probably because all this talk of food has made me hungry and I can't think straight. So. If you know of any more or, more particularly, if you know the difference between these things, please enlighten me.
Every now and then I spot a new local favourite and, in the interest of science and in the spirit of collaborative blogosmog journalism, I try it on for size. So yesterday's lunchtime consisted of a brie and cranberry sauce sandwich with pine nuts. Those of you who are squeamish about the consistency of your food -- c'mon, I know you're out there, hands up all of you with a hate-on for eggplant (or aubergine as they so cod-exotically call it here) -- probably won't dig it, but it was surprisingly delicious.
Tomorrow: mackerel in curry sauce. Yum!
