When I lived in Nottingham I called them cobs, but now I just say white roll. I think they were baps in Bristol. Rather appropriate really.

Its part of a very delicte master piece, we call it 'the roll' , to complete it you need to add the missing the cheese slices, ketchup, 2 x BBQ'd 1/4 pounder's, a fresh fried egg and 3 onion rings to make it complete :hungrig

Teacake here, breadcake in Leeds.

Bread bun (where I grew up - although everyone ate stottie cakes) - bread roll here (although morning rolls are more appropriate, regardless of the time of day).

Nope it's a roll. Not sure what the large ones are called. These days I suspect 'Sub' is used by kids for that sort of thing.

Get the feeling that bread is called different things in different parts of the country?

Here in Stoke that would be a bap. Where my wife comes from (used to be Lancashire but is now Merseyside) it would be a barmcake.

I've used bap and barmcake for those.. not heard barmcake for many years, it used to be the word for those in Manchester when I grew up, I'd tend to say bap now. At the inlaws in northern Scotland, that would be a morning roll.

Down here in sunny South Wales thats a bap, although if you're in Cardiff it may also be a cob. :hungrig

 

[moodymick]

It's a teacake if you're from East Lancs. My wife who is from elsewhere despairs - but then she should 'cos she's wrong.

We also argue like billy-o over what meals are called:

Me. Breakfast, Dinner & Tea

Her. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

She quite likes Tabac, so she's not entirely a lost cause

 

[Jack Force]

Agreed its

Breakfast, Dinner and tea

we had Dinner ladies at school not lunch ladies!!!!!

 

[scottymac]

We call them softies up here don't ask me why.
