More on Liverpool
Inhabitants of Liverpool are referred to as Liverpudlians but are also known as
"Scousers", in reference to the local meal known as 'scouse', a form of stew. The
word 'scouse' is probably a contraction of 'lobscouse', the name of a Scandanavian
stew which is thought to be a precursor of the scouse dish.
