Ah! the french quiche. from the east of modern day france. What more evidence do you need monte , the englishman always looks to france for sophisticated ways? 
Fuck sake , you never hear the french say , lets have a republique jellied eel.
We call it flan here in the land of the Iceni. what i want to know is why dont we hear the english talk about native food. What about coronation bread and dripping?
someone said it might be because of the scant choice in the local foodbanks , but im sure that cant be true. benny hill assures me essex pot noddles are a gastronomic wonder to behold , while vinny loves morrisons bread and water.

No, it was named in celebration of Arthur Wellesley himself and his victory at Waterloo. Best made with the finest Aberdeen Angus. You could argue I suppose that it was just a reworking of the French filet de boeuf en croute but where's the fun in that? Meat wrapped in pastry, of course, goes back at least as far as the ancient Greeks. |

Welsh town’s coronation party axed after organisers fail to raise ‘any money whatsoever
A town’s coronation party had to be cancelled after organisers failed to raise any money to cover costs, claiming there was a “lack of interest”.
Caldicot, in south-east Wales, was due to host a celebration in the town centre complete with big screen and children’s entertainment, but with just over a week to go the event was axed.
In an online post, Caldicot Town Team said a crowdfunding page had been running for 16 days, but despite being promoted on social media it had “failed to raise any money whatsoever”.
Caldicot is just up the road. My next door neighbour was before his retirement the most senior ranking copper in their plod house. I kniw the place reasonably well. I’m not sure why a rag dedicated to throwing the english out of wales is making such a song and dance about this. Caldicot has for decades been a dormitory town for commuters to Bristol who enjoyed Welsh house prices and Bristolian salaries at the penalty of a painful commute bia Severn Tunnel Junction or the overtaxed Severn Bridge. As such the number of welsh speaking anti charles protestors amongst this largely tory supporting town whose councillors and adjacent former Newport borough councillors include the regional party chairman and former figurehead opposition Mayor (a chain jangler job, not one with any power like London or Manchester) can be counted on the cheeks of one arse. I can think of many reasons why the citizens of Caldicot ciukdn’t give a rats arse about street parties but VERY high on the list is half the people are immigrants from all over who got here on dodgy European id and are renting places there and have no real roots in the place or indeed the country at all save the megabucks they earn in less than kosher businesses in bristol, the second highest priced place to live and work in tbe whole united kingdom. No story here. Move on |
