This word is still used in sheffield. I don`t think it`s only certain areas that use it. I think it`s just how you`ve been brought up. It`s either a pikelet or a crumpet. Either way they`re lovely toasted with lashings of butter and jam on them, so much in fact that if you`re not careful it runs down your chin mmmmm
