[lace-chat] Scousers
And Lancashire hot-pot is usually lamb or mutton with carrots, onions and gravy, topped with sliced potatoes, covered and cooked slowly in the oven. The lid is removed near the end ofcooking to brown the potatoes Because of the slow cooking, cheap cuts of meat were used. Nowadays, almost any ingredients can be used such as lamb chops, beef and kidney. Other vegetable can be addeddepending on the size of the pot. It's a hot comfort meal for cold winter days.

Re: [lace-chat] Scousers
Yes, Brenda is right about the accents and the adjective, I just hadn't thought of those, but one doesn’t refer to a person as a "Scouse" - whatever the Cambridge dictionary says!! Cambridge is too far south to get such details right. Having lived as a Northerner in the south of England for 20 years, I was teased a lot about my Cheshire accent. I'm very glad it wasn't a Liverpool one, even though I lived less than a mile from Liverpool. I think Lancashire hot-pot always has the potatoes layered on the top, whereas the way my Gran made Scouse it always had the potatoes stirred in (and she never used lamb for Scouse, only hotpot) I'd seen the joke before, and could imagine it happening for real too!

Re: [lace-chat] Scousers
Again, not quite! A Scouser is a Liverpudlian (someone from Liverpool) Scouse is the very distinctive English accent spoken by Scousers Scouse is also an adjective describing something relating to a Scouser And Scouse is also the Liverpool name for Lancashire hot-pot - which could be beef or mutton based.

I think Iâve seen this before, but it is still amusing A smile for today. (for our foreign readers: a Scouse is a Liverpudlian.someone from Liverpool) Lipstick in School According to a news report, a certain private school in Liverpool was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the toilets. That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night the caretaker would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back. Finally the Headmistress decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the toilets with the caretaker. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the caretaker who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little Scouse Princesses). To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the caretaker to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror. There are teachersand then there are educators.
