Christ, mate - not even the go-go dancers in Wigan wear pasties on
their nipples. Meat pies, maybe, but I don't think any of them have
sunk as low as pasties yet. Oh, the joy of words that mean different
things at different sides of the pond. I suppose my pervious statement
(and hence previous post on the subject) deserves some explanation.
For those of you not used to going to the pie shop and ordering a
pastie on a friday for lunch, a pastie (over here at least) is a
sort-of pretender to the throne of the all-conquering meat pie. It's
essentially a pastry wrapping around a filling of meat and potato or
cheese and onion, and it comes in two main forms, "cornish" or "puff".
A Cornish pastie has your average inch-and-a-half thick, solid as a
rock pastry round it, and Puff Pasties have kind of more of a filoux
(referred to as "puff") pastry.

There you go.

Any questions? No? Good........

C*ntry....)
