And know what a barm cake is. I had a right palaver getting one when I went south.

We're all on a vegan paleo diet down here, Bonce. I'm starving!

I grew up in Bolton and always knew them as Flour Cakes.

Don’t forget the salad cream!

Me also.

It was only when I went working in Leigh that I'd ever heard them called barm cakes.

I just assumed that's what folk there called them.

Scotch morning rolls?

Dad called them flour cakes. Mum, from Salford, called them barm cakes. 

Flour cakes always seemed different to me. Fluffier than a barm.

Whist Pies. Pies and Pastries. North West. Very small (two-bite) raised hot-water double-crust pies of slightly oval form, filled with spiced salt meat and jelly. Lower bake than Melton Mowbray, the filling may be cured pork or minced beef, often with bacon and almost invariably with a pork jelly.


When I moved to Knott End-on-Sea a very long time ago they looked at me in stunned amazement when i asked for half a dozen Whist pies.


It seems they called them a Dinky. ( of Yorkshire origin, I think)

Probably very nice on a buttered Flour Cake.

Whist pies bring back a few memories. My dad was a butcher and used to make his own. Probably why I became a veggie.

Nowt wrong with a bit of offal.

I'm waiting. Still.

Thanks for the information Sluffy- but they can piss off. For the first time in almost half a century I'm not going.  I'm not paying £20 to watch dross and also from the lower tier. I've had my seat in the Upper  tier from the first match in the new stadium, and when they get their act together I might turn up again. But certainly not tomorrow.

Never thought I would hear Knott End on this forum! I moved to Knott End in 1962.  There was nothing there then, a few houses scattered around.  Now on Google earth it looks as though it has become quite the metropolis.

Ticket purchased!

To be honest I don't think there will be much of a difference for the rest of the season in that the players we are being linked to seem to be kids, players who have never made it at other teams because they weren't good enough or injury prone, or simply have got too old for other teams to want.

I also suspect the top tier will be closed more often than not simply to keep the costs down.

You've always got Radio Nuts to fall back on though - if Karly doesn't go away on holiday again halfway through the season!

I don't even support Bolton but I'll be there. No box, sadly.

A shame your box is not available Nat. It would have filled up in no time for a party!
