Most outlets in the more discerning areas of North Manchester - Blackley, Collyhurst, Harpurhey, and Crumpsall wouldn't bat an eyelid if yer asked for a whatever-on-it muffin! I can see that Alky would be the same. 'Tis only when yer get to the areas where people have a shillin' on 'emselves that yer hear 'em asking for all sorts of perversions - barm, bap, stotty.
I am not sure if this has been mentioned in the previous 798 pages but I was in Leeds and over there they call them teacakes !!!
To be fair she said to me 'if it had currants in it what would you call it?" to which I replied 'a currant teacake'. As quick as a flash she said 'well this aint got currants in it'

Mrs Ewing, Rochdalian to her bootstraps, calls 'em teacakes! We've even had the same conversation re currants! North Mancs just call currant teacakes, teacakes. Teacakes have currants in them so the word currant in 'currant teacake' is somewhat superfluous! It'd be like asking for a bar of soapy soap.

What was the question, though?
