What are you eating and drinking tonight?

[Gooner Girl]

There's nowt wrong with cheese scones (rhymes with bones), nowt.

Quite. It's just your pronunciation of the word that is wrong, not the scones themselves.

I bet you say bath to rhyme with half don't you?

i don't see why anyone would pronounce path properly (*ie NOT parth) but then make the ludicrous choice to rhyme scones with bones!

i can forgive GG - she's just a bit posh and lives in sussex... she can't help it!

Actually, its us southerners that have it correct and you northerners that have mangled the English language.

And I'm not posh, and live in Derbyshire. I can't help it too. Regionalist!!

This morning:

Sausage, Egg & Black Pudding on a barm.

Gutbustingly brilliant

Excellent work, Sir. I once made the 'mistake' of pulling up at a butty van on Team Valley and asking for a breakfast stottie. feck ing hell!

[bobo the clown]

So, it's simple enough.

It's scone, as in gone.
Paths & baths as in Maths.
Book and cook as in boot.

... and drawing as in ... well ... drawing, not draw-ring.

... and dried fruit and candied peel in foodstuffs as in "WHY ????"

^ is precisely the right answer!

[Abdoulaye's Twin]

A massive slab of rump steak off the BBQ just consumed. I think I could do with a little nap now

It is Scone as in gone and there are no 'r's in a bath, path or anything else spelt ath. Whilst we're at it, why would you pronounce a book like nuke?

[Bruce Rioja]

I say book, cook and hook as in luck.

[bobo the clown]

I say book, cook and hook as in luck.

To be honest, after 30 years away I found that so do I. Never a positive decision or step, it just sort of crept up on me.

Don't tell GG.


But "draw'ring" pisses me right off. As does the misuse of 'v' where there should be a 'th' ... 'Roverham' for example.

I bet you get out of the bath as in math to take a piss too, don't you, posh boy.

errrrrrr

[Gary the Enfield]

Bath as in hath not hearth
Scone as in gone (with dried fruits OR cheese)

And you southerners haven't mangled English, you've mangled the French you spoke when you paddled across the Channel 1,000 years ago(ish)

[thebish]

Bath as in hath not hearth
Scone as in gone (with dried fruits OR cheese)

correct!

[Annoyed Grunt]

I say book, cook and hook as in luck.

Same for me.....

[Worthy4England]

Con = Scon
Cone = Scone.

Paff and Baff.

Cuk and Buk.

Yeah, but if he'd only been a Bishop or a Cardinal, he might have.
