I'm pretty good with Brit-speak, but "pudding" meaning dessert, not a specific, soft, dessert confused me for a long time.
Plus they use it for things that aren't dessert.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
There's always soemthing I've been hearing wrong or misunderstanding. Fanny was quite the revelation and I might never had known had I not gone to see Billy Elliott with a Brit who was laughing like a loon when the little girl said if he wanted, she'd show Billy hers.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
That's true, isn't it? Meanwhile, I'm picturing tapioca and thinking they eat a lot of it.

Yorkshire pudding for one. Savory side dish.

Exactly what I was thinking of, along with black and white puddings which are breakfast sides. I think black pudding = blood sausage, but I'm not 100% sure.
