Now then. Just watched a tv thing where a cook was talking about the second war, and specifically about cake.
She referred to everyone at that time getting "a slither of cake".
My wife and family also have always talked about a "slither". To me, that's the wrong word, and we always called it a "sliver of cake".
Now this blasted cook has used the word I'm getting the full on Mrs C told-you-so treatment.
So, slither or sliver, chaps?
