Apparantly no good after the first round

Not sure that joke would work up North. I only recently heard the phrase 'rounds of toast' I think it's a Southern thing, like elevensies and morning tea.

You've never heard of a round of toast? Do you live in Bolton castle and entertain the Queen or something?

You'll be telling us you don't know what a chippy is next!

Toast comes in slices, what yer on about ? Dinner is a mid day meal and tea time is when the kids come home from school.

Round = slice

Lunch = dinner for posh people

Dinner can also = tea for not-working class people too

What Pete says. Was only the last 8-10 months or so I heard it being called a round of toast. It's the language of the posh you see, it don't settle with me
Edited to add as I understood it a round was like a serving of toast so whatever comes out of the toaster in one go is a round!?

Thought a round was 2 slices...

My dad says round of toast... He's about as posh as a flat cap and a walk t'shop


JoelP - 5/5/09 at 08:53 PM

awesome, that means im posh dinner to me is whatever meal you have that is hot, which for me is at tea time (undoubtedly less healthy than main meal at mid day though).

Lunch is what you have on a lunch break

not heard of a round of toast though

Agreed, except at tea time I drink a tasty hot beverage and sometimes have a biscuit with it

So a full english breakfast would be dinner then?

Anyway Mr. Hatton. Most other boxers I've seen in the past few years win a few, become a sensation then disappear when they take a beating. At least he's taken two, and whatever he wants to do now is fine by me

Think you've just led a sheltered life. Toast came in rounds as long as I can remember.

Whatever your interpretation I'd rather have a round of toast than go a round with Ricky Hatton whether he lost or not, he got in there and did it and fair play to him. I don't follow or condone boxing but he has my respect without anyone taking shots at him for a cheap laugh.
