The thread for when you can't find the right thread

Was watching this video on street portraiture photography, when was hit by a tinge of sadness on hearing the answer from the guy who’s portrait he takes starting at 2:41.

At the Cafe at work they are serving flan as today's vegetarian choice. This has sparked a debate between what the difference between a quiche and a flan is. Well I wasn't sure so googled it and according to the internets; a flan is a dessert of some sort which is absolute bollocks, I've only ever eaten savoury flans. I blame Americans with almost nothing to back that up, but they seem responsible for most butchering of British words so I'll stick with it.

 

But what is the difference and what is this sweet dish Yanks are calling a flan?

Weren’t you ever served a ‘homemade’ fruit flan as one of the pudding options at a buffet for a family birthday?

 

by homemade I mean a shop bought flan base (sponge), with pieces of tinned fruit places all over it, and then set in. A clear jelly.

 

Here’s a picture of it’s middle class sibling. The above but made with real fresh fruit by the looks of it. Posh twats.

Haha thanks for the middle class version for my lofty southern ways, but I am not familiar with either flans. Flans are savoury

A quiche is a flan with a poncy French name

I remember years ago, Reeces maybe?, advertising Quiche Lorraine and thinking what the fuck is that?

Thats what they do. The ready made curries for example. They put a bit of broccoli in so it looks posher then sell it for 1.50 more.

Just a thought, for some reason I've been restricted and can't use messanger for a 4 days, is there anyway you can find out exactly the reason why? Never posted abuse or anything untoward and when I've tried to find out, who or what, it just gives various reasons of what could be the reason, 

It's a bastard not being able to reply to my messages without looking like I'm ignoring them.

Do you mean the one on here? Clear your inbox if so.

Yes FB messenger, I only use it for a couple of forums about Litherland and Bootle, nostalgia stuff. Other than that I don't really use it, some contacts are only on messenger some on WhatsApp, the other day I found an old family friend, he was on the Empress of Canada and I have a photo of him boxing on it, I went to send a message and it said I'm restricted till Sunday morning,  no big deal waiting till then, another old mate who goes the match still text me something about fixtures in June, but couldn't reply so a cunt really.
