I was in my local at 11am.
I walked in my regular takeaway at 11-59pm.
It's all in the timing Dave.
It shuts at midnight.

We shall not descend into that "discussion" again.

The same thing can have many names (as we've seen from the discussion above), I mean, you lot over there have Curd Cheesecakes whereas we call them Curd Tarts.
But, I have to confess, the best Curd Tart I've had was from Hull and was nothing like a cheesecake.

I shall be watching.

Remember what El Barbudo said.

Any further diversion into bread products territory will meet with severe action.



Which will only be withheld for masochists.

I was brought up on a strict diet of lunch being at dinner time (with the two being interchangeable) and tea being at tea time.

Of course, my mother when she moved to Warwickshire became Hiacynth Bucket and tried to surround her self with the neaveu rich. This result in tea becoming Dinner or even (more recently) "Supper."

It never caught on with me, much to her annoyance when I go down and in front of her new friends proclaim "What times mi tea lass? I'm that clempt mi stomach thinks mi throats bin cut."
