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!
