I used to run a bakery. We sold both crumpets and pikelets. Same ingredients, but for pikelets the batter was poured directly onto the griddle and allowed to find its own form, inevitably turning out thinner than the crumpets, which were cooked in ring moulds.That said I do live in a Shire, so my experience counts for naught.
I've honestly never had one of these thin pikelets in my life.

Jesus, this thread is taking an unexpectedly dark turn...
No, a pikelet is NOT thinner. Unless it is a shit pikelet.
I hope some Albion fans find their way onto H&V today to find out what we are saying about tonights game and discover we are all more interested in a Villa family argument about the difference between a pikelet and a crumpet.
We will probably get some debate on here as it seems to vary from region to region. Especially if we get people from Arctic tundra like Drummond chipping in.But to me, this is what pikelets looks like...
