venta

I have no idea where I got that from though. Although one side of the family is from Yorkshire it wasn't a phrase we used, so it's possibly from a book somewhere/sometime (and if pushed, I'd probably say my brain has it pegged as more shaped more like a pasty than what we usually think of as pie). I've just asked a friend who was born and brought up in West Yorkshire. His reply, "A class 37 diesel is what springs to mind immediately.", doesn't help at all :-) The word doesn't ring any partcular bells with him as a food item. I wonder if it does for another friend (a Geordie), I may enquire.
