you needn't flarch   posted that to confuse you  

I bet it's just another typo  

 

 

nope its a northwest word 

 

I HOPE that Cumbrians, Westmerians and everyone else in between will forgive me if I am wrong, but I understand (and it’s taken me eight years!) that the word “flarch” is local dialect meaning “soft soap, something that’s not quite true”.

It’s a lovely word and it’s often said with a smile on the lips and a twinkle in the eye. Good friends enjoy a bit of “flarch” now and again. In Derbyshire we call it “flannel”.
