The pies from the chippy in Wilbutts Lane, Rochdale come highly recommended.


Planning to pick some up next season, eh?


 Yep.....along with some black pudding from Bury and Accrington, and hopefully some Weston's cider from Much Marcle on the way to Hereford. The thought of Grays' Athletic is profoundly depressing. Suppos eit might be OK for jellied eels

But if you cut the pie in half, is it still one pie cut into two halves? Or does it become two pies in their own right?


I liked the suggestion earlier of if you have a giant pizza and cut circular sections out of it, are they now pizzas? Or simply circular 'slices'? Ver interesting.




And all you 2 sandwich voters are WRONG. It's one sandwich. Just one.

A pie can never become 2 pies or more by slicing them into pieces. What would be the point of pie charts?

And the same can be said for sandwiches...

A good point, well made Mr Pieman. Using a real-life example to explain what seems to be difficult problem to some. IT'S ONE SANDWICH.

 If you took the base and top of a pie and wrapped it around a peppered mixture of swede, onion carrot and horribly gristly meat...you could have two pasties.

I agree the argument at times..she's to get lost n then found in between pizza and butty's...but if it's cut in to halves it's still one sandwich..and yeah the 3 fillings ''sandwich's'' are just a ploy

''two halves make a whole'' that's my phrase n i'm sticking by it!

On a slightly unrelated but just-as-interesting note:

Do you say:

a) "How many beers have you drunk today, Jurgen?"   (incorrect)

or

b) "How much beer have you drunk today, Petulia?"   (correct)


So , if you have some bottles of Stella do you offer your mates 'a' beer or 'some' beer - or do you drink 'them' all yourself?

haha, now there's a question.

Technically it's 'some' beer, but I would offer 'a bottle of beer' which would then be changed to 'a beer' for my less enlightened 'mates' benefit.



Oh, and ONE SANDWICH!

I sometimes make sandwiches.

Normally if I'm making a sandwich I just use one slice of bread and fold it in half which is one sandwich but if I make two of those that's two sandwiches.
