I live only 80 miles away from where I grew up.

The accent is completely different. I like learning new local words when I move, the weirdest one from current city is ‘cob’ meaning a bread roll.

I’m guessing East Midlands? I’m Nottingham born and raised, ‘cob’ is the way to go, don’t even get me started on ‘roll’, ‘breadcake’ or (the worst), ‘barm’, they just don’t cut it for me.
Barm is the way to go for soft bread rolls. Cob is reserved for crusty bread. Hence the crusty cob. Get it right Kate! :-D
