Well said wrongun.
And what do they all have in common, AREAS NOT FROM MANCHESTER.
I mean, bloody hell, (sorry sound like Baconface there) people from Stalybridge still class themselves as Cheshire!
Believe me, chaps, it aint Cheshire!

Flixton blue said:Tolmie and wrongun. Absolutely spot on.
In my experience south, west and central Manchester are all definately barm enclaves. The only people i know who use the word muffin are those from Tameside and Oldham areas.
I think the real answer to the this question is what do the chippy's in CENTRAL Manchester call them. If you go to the chippy on Piccadilly gardens or the Lloyd street cafe its defo a chip barm.
In yorkshire they call them bread cakes, not tea cakes.
