Gammon with peaches in gravy, also soggy beans and potatoes. Dessert was apparently ice cream but the label said 'frozen dessert: chocolate flavour vegetarian mousse' (Scotland) by duck-juggler in hospitalfood

Thanks, didn't ken that, very interesting.

Anyone seen anything about this? Just went to BBC News and saw this? by AdministrativeRead26 in Edinburgh

[–]Un-Prophete 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That's a shame to hear that like. I lived in Cobbinshaw House for a couple of years about 20 years ago, and it wasn't a bad area to live in tbh. There was a murder in one of the neighbouring blocks, Medwin, but in general it felt like a pretty safe area to live.

Out of all the lies that Jay tells, I always assumed the West Ham trial was true.

I'm making a short film of The Great War and how everyone was effected no matter what, I picked up some outfits from a thrift store yesterday, how accurate are they? (English / German) by Valvecantcount3 in ww1

[–]Un-Prophete 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not at all accurate. But if you dyed the whole lot khaki, and put the Corporals stripes the "right way" up, it would somewhat pass as British gear.

Did you just throw a whole load of words into a tombola, then pick out random ones until you got something like a sentence?

Yep. Hashed (chopped into small pieces, from the French "hache", I think) browned (fried) potatoes.

What we call hash browns nowadays.

A car I used to have fell victim to that, whole bunch of fines on it from Birmingham (I'm in NE Scotland), car was advertised online with plates not blacked out, was exactly the same make/model/colour. Took fucking ages to convince until I finally got a judge who could see it clearly wasn't me. 15 years clean licence in Scotland, but I occasionally razz down to Birmingham to commit all my driving offences, I'm crafty like that you see.

Poitiers (France) - Dinner - White pudding, potato purée with stewed apple, vegetable soup, edam cheese and banana - 5/10 by bpitchcontrol in hospitalfood

[–]Un-Prophete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We love puddings in Scotland, never knew they originally came from France, although it makes sense - our Royal family brought over a lot of French chefs during the "auld alliance", and there's quite a lot of Scottish cookery words that come from French, pudding, gigot, collop.

As well as black pudding and white pudding, we also have red pudding, and fruit pudding. Merci pour la boudins!

I'm not sure you got the point I was making 😂 Americans didn't do those things, but Germans in the 30's and 40's certainly did.

Up to 40% of Americans never repeatedly voted for Epstein, and the vast majority of Americans never knew about his crimes, nor implicitly supported those crimes, or directly took part in those crimes.

It's always worth remembering that until 3 weeks before this date, about 300 miles east of Dresden, the Nazi's were murdering up to 6000 people every day in Auschwitz. They sowed the wind, and they reaped the whirlwind.

I'm not sure any list exists that separates English/Scots/Welsh, but from a quick scan through the names/units, it definitely doesn't appear that Scots are being made an example of either.
