Sandwich is far to posh a reference for a 'piece'.
A piece consisted of a single slice of bread spread with, butter/marge/jam or meat or fish paste.

this is what I was always thought a piece was, as my Dad would always ask for a piece to soak up his gravy...

Lived in Birmingham all my life and I've never heard anyone refer to a sandwich as a piece. I feel like I'm missing something.

Or dipped healthily in hot bacon fat.

My favourite was in the bottom of the roasting tray as the lamb or beef joint was cooking on a Sunday. Couldn't go letting perfectly good fat get wasted.

I read the use of the word Jasper on H&V  and immediately heard a bloke from Leicester at a wedding outside Paris say 'look at the fucking size of that jasper'.

Haha, we had a meeting at school with my daughters teacher because he couldn't understand why she kept putting mom in her work instead of mum. I also had a mug made for my wife from the kids, specifically told the bloke to put mom but he still went ahead and printed mum. The mug was re printed.

My grandad referred to it as a piecey.
He was always a bit of a rebel, though.

Maybe it's your age. I'm probably one of the youngest on here and I've not heard it either. Have heard cob though, use that one myself.

No, sorry - it's on the other side of the city, so I rarely go there. I pass through occasionally when going further westward.
