Just don't try asking for a muffin in Lancs though if you want a cake :rotfl:
Muffins to me (a Londoner) are what you cut and toast and butter.
Crumpets are those doughy things with holes in. My husband (from the North) calls them pikelets.
I call bread rolls just that but he calls them baps fadgies or stodgies!0 -

A quick google tells me that mangel wurzels are indeed fodder beet, which is the one I know of being fed to cattle, but I'd never heard them called that before!
As an aside, I did used to know a very eccentric old gentleman called Mangel Wurzle though, who actually married his dog :rotfl:"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"
