Has anyone tried Sourdough Crumpets or the world famous Pikelete.
Pikelets are nice but Welsh-cakes are better.
M&S do a fab pack of 8, not too thick, not too sugary & lots of fruit.


The Ghost pops in to check everyone is talking about crumpets.

sometimes Ghost really lets down the british class system.
Does it help that the raspberry jam contains whiskey and was purchased from Fortnum & Mason?

nice bit of crumpet is old english slang for a very pretty girl (meaning as tasty as a crumpet).
That is indeed the underlying joke.

Would Ghost eat crumpets with mustard on them? 🙂

No, just buy him good quality butter and raspberry jam.

I never said anything about buying anything. I hope you are not having hallucinations.

A man like the Ghost who can afford servants has no need for anyone buying anything for him. 🙂

It did shift from Posts that gave me the best giggle: 2023-2024 to the crumpets and what to put on them which seemed to take off. 🙂

I'd say, with the preponderance of men posting here, this is more of a sausage factory.


Crumpets have won the poll with 55% voting them the superior breakfast.

Indeed you say Sir, after all this is an English Chess site. So it would account for Crumpets being voted a superior Breakfast. Depending on the country involved you would have different results. I would say that poll would be pro English. 🙂 Or would English bias be a better way to put it? 😛
