I need your help to settle this perpetual disagreement in my home. I'm team 'skon' whereas my husband is team 'skone.'

Some context, we are not native to the UK so I will humbly accept consensus.

"alright geez, giz a skone"

"Good evening my good man. My name is Lord Ponsonby Smythe Smythe Smythe. Could I trouble you for one of those skons?"

Works both ways.

Edit: my friend, who I am currently drinking pints with, says "skon is more northern but posh and scone is more estuary".

And he's an expert and a cunt (his own description of himself).

By the power of editing clarification I shall smight thee in twain.

But for the record this is all cracking fun.
