When I was looking through the gifts at the vbPlaza and one of the things for sale was a "buttie" and when I looked at the gif (
), I didn't understand
what it was. So does anyone know what it is and why we would give it to someone (including ourselves)?

A buttie is a very English term for a sandwich - it's the only place I've heard it.

Mmmmmm bacon buttie....

Mmm, a peanut butter sandwich sounds good. So yes, I'd want one as a gift, lol, I'm hungry!

It did look like a sandwich to me when I looked at the icon, but I wasn't completely sure.

I know what it is thanks to all the episodes of "Keep Up Appearnaces". Onslow was always talking about bacon butties.

Is it a "buttie" because the bread is buttered?


Or because all the calories go to your butt?

I kept wondering when I would ever have the urge to give someone a pat of butter...

I thought it was a stick of butter. I wouldn't mind having a buttie. I might buy a buttie and a creepy Easter egg for myself!

That's exactly what I thought when I saw the title of this thread! My brother is going to spend some time in London for his job this spring - I'm sure he'll become very familiar with them.
