I think it's Sparnie, there's a leg on that second P. Looking it up, seems Sparnies is a "Sarnie" shop, which I guess is a British term for a sandwich?

Sarnie is indeed slang for a butty

(For those not from the UK, "butty" is another word for a piece.)

(For those not from the UK, "piece" is another word for a filled breadcake.)

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?
