Fit's it called?

Would a doughring be considered a fine piece, or a funcy piece?

A funcy piece would have been the terminology used when I grew up in Torry.

Bob the baker (fae the copie) would do his rounds into the early evening and if flush, our Ma would give us some money to go and get a funcy piece.

My brother liked a cream bun and mine was a coconut bun.

This was about 6 or 7 at night and sometimes the choice wasn't the best.

I can still smell the lovely smell inside the van after all these years.

If you put two teuchters in a room, I reckon they could talk on this subject for days without pausing

General rule of thumb. If you live north of Milngavie, it doesn?t matter what you call it. Youre wrong and you all sound really funny

I recall a Baker in Schoolhill had a machine in the windae made doughrings.
It was a mini production line thing that ended with the doughring being dropped in the fat then getting tipped out and covered in suger when done.

Duncans Baker. That's going back a bit min and long gone. They were bought by Thains a few years ago.

Used to be the Donut man who had that little unit as you come out the New Market onto Market Street that used to make fresh sugar Doughrings to order. 5 for a pound. Folk now pay a couple of pound per doughnut now (with choice of toppings) from Dunkin Donuts.

I've got a very big sweet tooth, but never cared much for doughnuts.

Memories of that corner with the fried doughnuts, seagull sh1te and tabs. Branston pickle and fish on calm days in Peterhead and slide tackles through dog sh1te at Sheddocksley make me wonder if my youth used to ming a bit?

You probably wouldn't have had it any other way. I wouldn't want to be growing up in this day and age.

That corner outside the new market was more than a little bit grotty like. The boy that used to run the donut shop didn't smell the best either. He looked like he had sampled a fair bit of his produce and the sweat would be running off him.

Pretty sure George Romero used to film in the New Market
