Apparently I missed a relevant feature or two while I was away.

The only good thing about being "British" is, in fact, the BBC. Other than that... meh. But there's one problem with that.

Glass bottle Irn Bru > BBC. So Scotland wins.

I tend to refer to myself as Scottish, unless I'm filling out some official form that asks for my nationality at which point I put what my passport says.

Getting your Barrs drink in a ginger bottle is the best thing. In my opinion the best way to drink it is out of the bottle it tastes so much better than in a glass.

I like the way Scotland is proud of it's Scottishness.

I am sure most people in Scotland are not "true" Scots, especially the Celtic ones, who ran away from the famine in Ireland.

Anyway, very happy to Say I am Cornish Through and Through*

Born in Devon, 6th Generation Jew, originally went to Falmouth to build wooden boats in late 19th Century, other families include farmers from Tamar Valley, and surname actually comes from a disciple, apparently. BUT I love Cornwall, and I am a grumpy lazy lying shit, so have all the charachter traits of a true Cornishman.

As far as "Scots" are concerned, unless you're descended directly from Picts, chances are your ancestors came over from Ireland at some point.

Could just refer to the Celts which covers both, but then you'd be included too.

Well...only one true way of seeing how Cornish you are

Jam then cream or cream then Jam?

Cream then Jam. The Devonshire way. It makes sense that way, as the cream is a substitute for butter and you would never put jam THEN butter on your scone.

No No No No No.

It's Butter, then Jam, Then cream....... And non just on Scones, you have it on toast for breakfast, and on Crumpets for Dinner, and Safron Cake for Tea.

Clotted cream is not and will never be in anyway a substitute for butter, if you did not put butter on my article with Jam & cream I would think you were a right nasty Facist.

I like peanut butter and Jam also, but again the peanut butter is in addition to the butter, not instead of, to go such a way, well madness trully lies.

You Cornish are flipping mental!

I agree on clotted cream on everything and that it is not a substitute for butter.

But its cream then jam on a scone(rhymes with gone)

No it doesn't, not unless you spell it Scome.

Scone rhymes with Cone. Or if you prefer, it rhymes with Gone. Either way they taste amazing with clotted cream and jam.

And it would never have occurred to me that you put butter on a scone AS WELL as cream - this could change my life. And my cholesterol level.

Hmmm Vanilla Ice Cream cone, with Clotted Cream..... Hmmm, Yum.

And Scone Ryhmes with Gnome, and home if you ask me. If you say scone rymes with gone, you probably say Bath not Baff, and get out of the Baff to have a piss, just saying.

My dad's favourite afters was Loseleys vanilla ice cream with clotted cream. I've just had a piece of stale chocolate fudge cake, warmed through in the microwave, with Carte D'Or vanilla ice cream. Only clotted cream could have improved that.
