    Up in Scotland I think the preferred sauce is brown. Don't ask why! Matthew Lang

            Although I do like a bit of brown sauce, mustard is the way to go. What is brown sauce made from anyway? Red is tomato (well, we like to believe it is anyway). But brown is always just "Brown sauce" Or "Daddies". Whats the deal there... Pete

                  What exactly is a bacon buttie(y):confused: I don’t think we have those in the US. Funny thing though, I’m not sure exactly what they are but I’m sitting here drooling and my stomach is crying for bacon butties as I read everybody’s posts...I had a cup of oatmeal for breakfast.:|

                    My preference is brown sauce on brown bread. The brown/red sauce divide seems to pretty much mirror the traditional UK north/south divide around the Watford gap. '--8<------------------------ Ex Datis: Duncan Jones Merrion Computing Ltd

When I was a child I thought it meant there was a big hole in Watford, but as a teenager I found out that it wasn't anywhere near Watford and came to the conclusion that it was a metaphorical expression to describe the divide or gulf between the north and the south. Finally as an adult I discovered, while driving to London one day, that there truely was a place called "Watford Gap" --Colin Mackay--

                      Crisp rashers of bacon between two buttered slices of bread. Buttie is a general term for sandwich where the bread is buttered. Chip butties and fish finger butties are particular childhood favourites. '--8<------------------------ Ex Datis: Duncan Jones Merrion Computing Ltd
