A dumb (unpowered) barge towed on the British canal systems by a powered (perviously horsedrawn) narrowboat
Butty (sandwich), a sandwich in British slang
Friend in Welsh English

Sandwich... or more often a filled roll. Over here we use butter on our sandwiches (yes, we use butter AND jelly) so the roll is spread with BUTTer, hence the BUTTy.
Chip butty and bacon butty have got to be the true classics :-)
Mind you, on second thouughts most folks possibly use marg these days, but you can't really go round saying a Bacon Margy... it just ain't the same!!!
