Tiddy Oggie

[ladyalex]

TIDDY-OGGY is in Wikipedia, but that is 5-4 not 5-5

[safflower]

Tiddy Oggie it must be. Thank you both. What a 'very interesting' name.

[ladyalex]

Happy to help, even if I was wrong-ish

I think it may be teddy oggie ( teddy being potato)

Always called Tiddy Oggies in our house .My mother was a Cornishwoman .She made a proper pasty :)

[Lie-in King]

Mmmm, pasties...(dribble, drool)

[bryher]

agreed lots of local derivations on the word but please pasty is a pasty NOT a pastie :-)

[Lie-in King]

Gulp! But bryher, if I had more than one, I would have eaten some pasties, not pastys... :-)

[bryher]

dear lie in king if you eat more than one pasty at a sitting - beleive me if you had eaten one of my grandmothers - a truly formidable woman - you would be as fat as a lard ball and probably suffer health problems . Night night to you all its been fun :-)

[Lie-in King]

Night! :-O)) (meant to be chins!)
