You’ve no idea how much you all sound like slack jawed wurzels when calling it a chipper. Sound like Wurzels.....you don't even want to know what they call stuff in the west country. They're a proper funny breed (I can say that, I live on the Dorset side of the Dorset / Somerset border!) Edited 5 hours ago by CurlsLikeTattie Quote
Panda Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago I'm ashamed to say I used to call it a chipper and allowed myself to be bullied into calling it a chippie when I moved to Glasgow. All this garbage from Aberdeen are serving up is probably my karma. You lot are just getting caught in the crossfire. King Rib supper btw for whoever is putting the order in. 1 Quote
Slim Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago Mock chops and king ribs. We just need someone to admit to habitually ordering chip steaks and we've completed the mystery-meat holy trinity. 1 Quote

Teuchters are from anywhere further north of Aberdeen than (and including) Newmachar and further west than Kingswells. Otherwise, why would the bus to Newmachar, or any bus that isnae a toon bus, be called the teuchy bus? All I will say is this. Bar about 5-6 years away in other places I've lived in the highlands since I was 5 and I've never heard a highlander call someone from the north east a Teuchter. Quote

Maybe a teuchter is relative to where you come from? So growing up in Aberdeen made us look at those country yokels as teuchters. If they bide where there are tractors they're teuchters. Maybe? Quote

Maybe we're both right and interpretation has changed by area over time Quote
