Is that where the phrase "having a cob on" comes from? ;)

 

 

I'd rather have a bacon 'n' egg stottie.

Can I refer you to a reliable source of confirmation please? I'm not sure if this brings up the specific item but if you scroll across you'll find on the alphabet calendar that C does indeed refer a baked piece of bread dough. The rest of it is good for a laugh as well, so long as you can understand it, some local dialect knowledge may help :jester:

Edit:  There's also a reference elsewhere on the site to 'nannar avin a cob on' ie, she's not very happy with someone :nono:

If it's hard and Crusty it's a Cob, and if it's soft and floury it's a Bap. So there...

 

Nah, it's still a roll as in 'a roll an chips', a roll an sausage, a roll an egg. Ask anyone North 'o' the border.

 

Hey I'm hungry now.
