Default Thermos Flask!!!

At the risk of sounding like a sad old git....

Does anyone know where you might buy a flask?

Ferreteria maybe? Don't think I have seen one in 3 years of being here! But mind you I haven't been looking!!!

What a glamorous life I lead eh

I hope that's a joke? If not, it's because the inner shiny glass surface is surrounded by a vacuum so keeps temperature fairly even.

By definition a vacuum is nothing, so nothing keeps the temp even.
Like JDR said it's a sort of magic.

My tuppence - try an outdoor shop and get a stainless "thermos" they don't have glass so dont break when used to bludgen any stray animals and are filled with something as opposed to nothing in a vacuum flask. So you're also getting more for your money - though as has been said before you're actually getting less money for your money so it will actually be quite expensive compared to when you got more money for your money.
