#5 It's pronounced scun-thorpe for anyone who's not sure. Jokes along the lines of the man who put the 'c***' into Scunthorpe will be tolerated, however.

Funny how this story's not made the Beeb, innit? I don't think such allegations about an Anglican or Catholic man of the cloth would be ignored in this way...

#6 Scunthorpe, Scunthorpe - sounds a lot meaner than East Wigglesby, no?

*places forehead against monitor*

I'm getting images of Pirates and Brigands and Rough-Trade Scoundrels... An involuntary "Arrrggghhh!" escapes... Okay, Oh yeah... From a PR standpoint, I think we can work with this...

#9 Meat pies, you mean? You're confusing the Yanks, Howard, heh. My first though was, "Cherry or apple?"...

#10 Steak and kidney / meat /meat and potato/ chicken and mushroom. I think their cornish pasties (lamb) were good too. (meat = British for mechanically reclaimed beef.)
