I'm always having arguments with folk about what the name is for these, apparently there's loads? Bits and scraps is what I'm used to but I think scraps is more southern?

Tis like different households having different names for the remote control. In my house its called a diggy, in others I've heard it referred to as a plonker and zapper Of course there are those with no imagination who just call 'em remotes

It was scraps when I were a kid in Norfolk, also a sausage in batter was known as a "battered chap" (think about it.............)

I went in the chippy today and said fish and chips twice.

Can't say i've ever been myself but it always seem packed whenever i'm down that way. Usually end up at the cafe by Alton train station, thats always a goof laugh. Until you get a puncture after 5 mintues and have to wait 5 hours to be towed back the 6 miles to work and end up being late......

I don't like Chips, am I in the minority?
