It's not that it's this!

Following on from Nippy's accents thread.

I asked Leanne the other day if she would like some buns for the trip we were taking.

Buns to me is baked buns - cupcakes.. Buns to Leanne, Katie and other notts folk is hot cross buns or cobs

Breadcakes to me is what folk around here call cobs

Is there anything you say that is something else somewhere else?

When I lived in Preston they called a batch (cob, roll, bun) a barm cake! I call it a batch and people round here ask what I want a batch of!

see i hear batch and balm cake if im in stoke, but i call it a bap.

theres loads more that i laugh at when people say them but i cant remember them cos youve just put me on the spot

To me a bun is
a curranty cake of bread dough preferably with icing yum
or
what blokes sit on

A bun is a curranty bread thing as C&D says. What x-clo-x calls a bap is a muffin, baps are boobs! Although to my great grandad muffins were "cut runs" (cut rounds). A sandwich is also known as a butty.

I remember having a huge argument with my ex because he'd phoned me for something one morning and had asked what I was up to. I'd replied I was just having a brew. Well he hit the roof and had a right go at me for drinking at 10am I was having a cup of tea! He then had a go at me for the next 4 years for calling a cup of tea a brew

muffins arent baps!! muffins are a type of cake haha i got told you cant call a cup of coffee a brew because a brew is a cup of tea

can see this thread is going to be a funny one

Ooh a chip butty is a chip cob here..

i dont understand this cob malarky a cob here is either a cob of corn, or a horse

We call them buns .. Cobs?!? What are they?

I remember first moving down South from North East in with the OH he asked me where I'd put his carkeys , I said on the bench & he looked at me like I was stupid & went off into the garden...came back & said, we dont have a bench...i told him ofcourse we have benches, in the kitchen!! He calls them worktops, I call em benches!

Don`t be daft! Muffins are silly people
And cobs are rather solid-looking horses.
