    A broth is any meat, fish or veg boiled or simmered in liquid! So technically a soup is a broth but a broth is not necessarily a soup!

    Could you draw a Venn diagram to represent that, please?

    Trevor Harris was bemoaning the fact that Venn diagrams are taught in school and never used so I feel that I need to include one to disprove his point.

    Blimey, it's pretty tricky getting that whole simmered/boiled meat, fish or vegetable Venn thingy proportionally correct, I'll tell you. 

    It's a lot easier to illustrate Maxally's conundrum, and more fun too, but you'll never get it past the mods.

    My soup contains not tail of Ox, but Sausage of Toulouse (and other consumable lumpen ephemera). It's therefore clear that I eat it. Thanks for taking time to clear that up. I love this forum, it's like Wikipedia, but interactive – and a lot more factual. I'm currently investigating the difference betwixt soup and broth. As you can see, the intellectual pursuit has just cranked up a notch.

    I thought that it looked more like an egg.
    I'm not sure what Freud would make of that.

    Probably that you want to sleep with your mother because she used to make you eggs.  Then again Freud said that anything any of us do or anything we dream about means we want to sleep with our mother.  Moral of the story?  Freud's mother must have been well fit.

    And ironically your venn diagram looks like the foodstuff that invalidates Donut64's statement and therefore the venn diagram.

    A broth is any meat, fish or veg boiled or simmered in liquid! So technically a soup is a broth but a broth is not necessarily a soup!

    Egg soup.  Egg is neither meat, fish or veg so simmered in liquid it is not a broth.

    There was also an ask Blackfish, which I personally think gave the best poker advice of all of them.

    Or my favourate Dear Pu who I think gives the best advice overall.

    No brainer Machka- you ask me.

    If however, you want a useful answer- I suggest you ask someone better qualified. Your cat, for example.

    Hiding behind a drinks machine, scared that your boss is going to catch you on the phone to Sky Poker (a la GregHogg) is not optimal play compared to the tranquility and easy access toilets of a tree in the open air. So well done for picking that particualr location for you call today, Aaron.

    That said, Greg beats you hands for refreshments. So you may want to bear that in mind for future calls...

    Hi Rich,

    Question for you - What is the slowest you have ever seen someone embrace a new technology, for instance Twitter, when all their friends, colleagues, pets, etc have been using it for years?

    Tsk! I am currently in the office dusting down another masterpiece script for tonight's live show. Ahem.

    But rest assured, I will deal with these impertinent questions in due course.

    The cheek!

    After two and a half years the Ask Tikay? thread has now reached the heady heights of 4000+ posts.  After nearly two years the Ask Orford? thread is having trouble breaking into triple digits.

    Do you think you need to try harder?
