    Whereas, I, on the other hand, have always thought a 'growler' to be a cornish nasty, as in an 'humpty-back growler' - on account of mi mam mekkin me cornish nasties in the shape of a stegosaurus.......them wer days.....pastry as thick as my grand-daughter (that's another story)

    Never heard of it and I'm originally a brigger. Is it a north Barnsley thing?

    It is also used to describe a particularly hairy muff in North Yorkshire.

    I love a pork pie, especially a warm one, but I'd never heard them referred to as a 'growler' until I saw it on here.

    As a straight talking person who likes to avoid ambiguity, I think I'll continue to refer to them as pork pies!

    Bump

    Tickets going out pretty quick for this - we're limited to numbers we can get in so worth getting your tickets before hand.

    Also, if anyone can help with a raffle or auction prize let me know. Cheers.
