Ah, Arctic Roll! Bit too exotic for my parents' shopping trolley so that was A Proper Treat at someone else's house.

Posh, but not as posh as a Vienetta...

Vienetta? Bloody pikey.

Miss Goodbody's steamed clootie dumplings are things to behold![Keep you warm in Winter too!

Please don't use "pikey"; it's racist.

Now we're talking!

If you can find sour dried apricots - easy in Switzerland, difficult in UK - I'd add them to rhubarb and gooseberry crumbles as top puddings.

No it isn't.

From the English "turnpike", the place where itinerent travellers and thieves would camp near a settlement.

Pikey is not a racial group, the term is used to describe anyone who lives in a caravan or shares the same values and "culture" of "the travelling community"...
