Two guys are driving across North Africa in an E Type (OTS). They see an oasis with several tents beside the road. The driver says, ''I'm really thirsty - you speak Arabic, see if we can get some water over there.''
So the passenger goes to the first tent, and says, ''Do you have any water you could spare?'' The tent occupant says, ''No, we have cake here.'' He goes to the next tent, asks for water, and the reply is, ''No sorry, we have no water. Only custard.'' At the third tent, he is told, ''We don't have anything but jam.''
He goes back to the car, and the driver says, ''Didn't you get any water?'' To which he replies, ''They don't have any water. It's a trifle bazaar.''
(American readers can request an explanation.)

I well remember my Grandmother's (western England) trifle with real custard, and not North America's pudding version.
