Ah Hibbs, on that one, the H-E seems to be keeping schtum, or as Nettie would have it:



the hand/eye ain't listening/seeing


I have another question: Dear all seeing Hand-Eye, will I ever have dinner with people who can navigate a cheese board and don't cut the cheese so as to nab all the best bits for themselves?

Ah Rosie


Welcome back to the table of the fountain of knowledge.


The Hand-Eye? says....


There once was a woman who saw heaven and hell, but found they were nearly the same.

Each one consisted of a group of people sitting at a round table with cheese. But their chopsticks were way too long to eat cheese with! The difference was that people in heaven were always full of cheese and happy, while the people in hell were messin' with the cheese.


H-E

Yes.


Purgatory is a giant fondue of bubbling hot cheese maxxi, though i'm not sure it's limited to "Babybels" as i'm sure the odd cheese string or Bavarian Smoked slips in there.


Does that answer your question ?



H-E

Maxxi, maxxi, maxxi,


Rescind your anger, Smok/Bav is an unwilling criminal in the cheese world.


I'm much more furious with Red Leicester; which is neither red nor from Leicester.

RosieH. Please note, the nose is cut from this cheese.


The H-E

aaah, Red Leicester - the permatanned chav of the cheese world.


This particular example bears the seam and creases of a vacuum-packed portion, a bit like a teenager's bedroom - all sweat, greasy skin and a smell of old vomit. The laughing cow must be turning in her grave.


Re Bavsmochee I refer you to the hollanderish cheese-eating classes - "Cheese that is deemed not fit to eat in Holland (all Bavarian smoked cheese, for example) is fed to the cats"


eta: and it comes in LOGS!

I have a question of social etiquette.


"don't nose the cheese" can only apply to cheeses with non constant features eg blue cheese which have more concentrated centres? I have worked this out as my own theory over time, but cant see the logic in people taking a "side strip" of a constant cheese like camembert....


I'm sure Rosie Cheese will put me right.

Ah Franky-poos


The H-E is resting ( actually she's cuffed to my side )


I'm sure she'll glam up later for a shot though.


Nette:)

    • I always say if you want to know what life would be like without the NHS get a dog.    we plan to use Mrs Robson next time we have an issue - our dog suddenly developed a limp a couple of months ago and she gave us free fantastic advice over the phone - saved money/time/stress. Hope she doesnt retire soon!  
    • The one on Chesterfield was sold and they increased cost and some of their best staff left with the previous owner, hasn’t been the same since. Shame really
    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
