(For those not from the UK, "butty" is another word for a piece.)
Piece of ..? Bread? Cake? Ass?
They didn't say "a piece of," just "a piece." Since we're talking about slang and since "a piece" is slang for "a gun," we're forced to conclude that the advertisement is for a gun shop.
But guns are biceps, so clearly it's a gym / fitness studio.
Oh, true. And it being a gym also supports the "ass" angle.
I like “butty” being slang for a piece of ass better.
Because "fanny" is vagina over there?
(For those not from the UK, "piece" is another word for a filled breadcake.)
Clarifies a certain schoolyard nickname, apparently.
What's a breadcake? Is it bread or cake? You have to pick one...
Is this why British food sucks?
Isn't piece slang for cob?
we call it a barm round these parts
