Scone to rhyme with cone. It's got a magic e making the o elongated. I'm in the North West with Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Lancashire, Cheshire, and Irish roots.

I don't eat mine with cream. Clotted cream just sounds like some kind of STI affliction. Blood clots, cream shouldn't. However, if I did eat any kind of cream then the cream would go on first in place of butter. How do you eat yours?

And lastly, what is the best flavour scone? Mine is cherry followed by sultana but I've not experimented beyond that.

Let the bun scone fight begin!

NI and scone rhymes with gone. Butter, butter & jam, cream & jam or butter & cheese. Depends on the type of scone & what I have in the fridge, I usually make my own. Treacle are the best Smile
