thin or thick pancakes

so yesterday was shrove tuesday, and as is tradition, we used up all our leftover items from the cupboard before fasting for lent.............

....ok so thats not entirely true, we went out out and bought extra maple syrup, blueberries, bananas, toffee sauce, nuts, cream, milk, toffee sauce, creme freshe and nutella............

....but the essence of shrove tuesday was there

anyway this is besides the point, what i actually wanted to talk about was the choice of think or thick pancakes, like very briton, i was brought up on think, flappy lemon and sugar pancakes, and theres nothing wrong with this....until you vist america and realise that you can make pancakes a whole lot thicker....smaller too.............but much thicker and therefore more robust... they seem more filling and are easier to flip, but are they tastier???

well i dunno, my girlfriend claims she prefers the thin ones, i mean to me a pancake is a pancake, i think the thicker ones certainly take longer to eat, and when stacked they are a hearty meal for any man, so for me the main difference is how well they flip....and its more fun to flip the thick small pancakes than big floppy ones.....

so there you have it.
