When you buy it, it's a SCOAN

When you've eaten it, it's SCON

That rock that the Jocks nicked off us, it wasn't the Stone of Scon was it.

Scone of course, how could it be any other way?

I'm confused with this one and always have been. I'm northern but have lived down south for the majority of my life. Sometimes I say "scone" and sometimes i say "scon" what should I be saying? ( I would prefer the northern term please)

When I read this poll title, I read it phonetically, like this:

"Scoan or Scon"

So, I suppose that answers that one... I appear to unintentionally use both pronunciations.

Do you have any trees in your garden?

If so, I'd suggest giving them a quick check before you go to bed each night
