Aha, that's different from pie and mushy peas innit? I always wondered where they got the 'floater' part of the name from - thought it was artistic licence :-) I saw a programme with the comedian Billy Connoly a few years ago where he extolled the virtues of a pie floater bought from a van on the waterfront of some big city in Oz (sorry, can't recall which one tho).
