Pies indeed.... surely one means Pasties !
Nooooooooooooooo!...Pasties are something completely different,as in Cornish....half moon shaped.....pehs/pies...approx 4in dia x 2in high...on the outside and depending on the filling...between 1.1/2in ..to 1.3/4in..on the inside.....Scotch Pies...Flemings steak/gravy,...Wallace,s, Bel,s
and another Bells,...and to confuse a Pastie eater...a Wallace,s bridie..half moon shape...plain with 1 hole,..& ingin/onion...with 2 holes..oh...and the famous Bel,s Skirly pehs/pies ;then there,s the World famous Farfar/Forfar...Bridie @1.1/2lbs in weight for the family sized one....although I know a couple of Fat B*****s,that can eat one each,and they don,t touch the sides on the way down....
.....well Dave perhaps your topic should be renamed
The Great Pie Debate
....68+ posts and nary an argument....great...and i,m amazed at how many like pies,...but as for M&S ...too steep for my meager pension,perhaps i should have moved down to the more affluent south,years ago,....but then again..i,d never understand a word they were sayin...if ye ken wat i mean...
