On the farm in North Montgomeryshire I was given mothers version of Siencyn:-
Bread, butter, cheese tablespoon of Bovril and hot water. Given to me if not feeling well. Father had It if he was hungry!
Got Covid now so going to give it a go.

Absolutely loved the tea version of seincyn when I was a growing boy back in the 50s. My father told me the colliers used to eat it before their shift. Been many decades since I last tried but just got to give it another go. We lived in the lower South Wales valley.

I had butter sops for breakfast at my grans in the 50s. This was in Cornwall. Perhaps it's a Celtic tradition?

We always had sop with my gran, growing up in the 70's in Swansea. Buttered bread broken up with bits of cheese, mixed up in a bowl, then filled with hot sweet tea, and extra sugar on top. The chunks of cheese would melt in the tea...lovely! The alternative was to make it in the bowl, with slightly less tea so not so soggy, put a plate on top then turn it out like a hot steam pudding... known as a 'sop castle'... like a sand castle but tastier!

I remember my two Uncles having this for breakfast before going out to milk the cows at Groeswen farm near Caerphilly, in the 1960 s. My Mam Gu referred to it as Bara Te . After milking they would have a second breakfast of bacon and eggs cooked on the coal fired Rayburn. Though living in Glamorgan, the family originall came from Llandovery and Myddfai.
