British food

Brilliant! Especially the contention that a chip butty is a "balanced and reasonable meal"! grin

Very Good! I've just had the last one for my lunch (buttered spice bun with Marmite and cheese.)

Brilliant! I didn't know American custard was called pudding. You live and learn!

And the debate goes on: scone rhymes with gone or scone rhymes with cone.

I say the former, being northern!

When I first went to America as a teenager I was asked if I wanted to use the 'restroom'. I thought 'how weird! I've just had a rest on a plane, why would I want to rest again?' You live and learn grin

And don't even think about mentioning rubbers!

MawB, a chip butty IS a balanced meal, especially if you have 2, they fill you up nicely!
