Today's installment for the letter J.
"Jeely Piece"
Pronounced: jee-lee pees
Definition: The Scottish version of a jam sandwich.
Usage: Oh ye cannae fling yer jeelie piece oot a twenty storey flat.
Translation: Get me a crocodile and jam sandwich, and make it snappy! Origin : Who gives a fekkin' rats arse? It tastes sooooo good.
The pretty wee Scottish market town of Jedburgh or as the Scots call it : Jeddart or Jethart, is a town and former royal burgh in the Scottish Borders and historically in Roxburghshire.
Home to the beautiful 12th century Augustinian Abbey.

I always though Scottish was a different language, and now I am convinced!
So like a peanut butter and jelly, hold the peanut butter (or oops, we were out of peanut butter)
