Which Brie is best?

[Bob Buzzard]

Is Breton Brie better than Normandie Brie? 

[Spartacus]

Who are we to diss a brie ? 

[malumbu]

A difficult one.can we come over to yours for a blind tasting?  You could sneak in a Somerset brie as well.

I'll bring bottles of Breton, Normandy and Somerset cider.

Can you get hold of some blue brie?  That would make things interesting.

As I'd like to maintain my identity I'll be dressed in disguise.  We could have a theme but not animal masks as we would look like swingers.

[Twoddle]

I dropped my cheese and crackers on the floor the other day. There was da-brie everywhere!

Badum-tsssh.

[teddyboy23]

That wasn't very mature was it

[Spartacus]

I’ve got a great joke about a wheel of Brie...
But I can't tell you it, it's too cheesy.

[malumbu]

That's a wheely dreadful joke.

[Spartacus]

That's Bad Brie-havior knocking someone luke that mal 

[malumbu]

Hard cheese!  

(Just found out that this is a jovial comment, 'better luck next time' as haven't heard it since the last time I watched an Ealing comedy)

Although AI thinks different.

I think these cheese wars could eclipse the last major war in the UK

Yes, I'm talking about the Brit pop wars.  Whose side were you on.  See what you have started Bob.....

[Bob Buzzard]

I need to decide for what type to put on my Jamie Oliver cheese bridge. 

[jazzer]

Go too both cheese shops on LL and try the different offerings, then tell them you're just seeing which is best and you'll get back to them.

Blessed are the cheesemakers.

[malumbu]

Avoiding the issue Bob, start a war and then walk away pretending that it was not you.  Good idea for a comedy sketch featuring John Cheese, sorry Cleese.

In terms of what to guy.  Fortunately the modern food store makes this easy.  Thought that this was Waitrose's finest but disappointed to see that it is also on sale in Sainsbury's.  I understand that the (old) penny store, Marks and Sparks fails in terms of cheese selection boxes.

Sounds like you've had some interesting evenings 🤣

[malumbu]

Perhaps this could be part of your proposed forum meet up, the cheese I hasten to add @Sue

What, a Brie tasting? 

I'd rather have an animal mask than have to eat Brie 🤮

[Spartacus]

Sue, if you put on a Dog mask, I'm.sure Bob will say "nice bit of wensleydale Grommit?" to you at the drinks

We find that just adding your own favourites is the best way - everyone likes different things and your guests will likely be happy enough

[malumbu]

I'd actually go the whole hog and do a fondue, we all remember them fondly from parties in the last century or trips to Switzerland.  As long as it is cheese, not chocolate, urghhh

[Bob Buzzard]

Switzerland? I normally go to Rome.

[malumbu]

Sorry but are fondues allowed under the Brexit treaty?  Perhaps this was discussed in the latest talks, didn't see any mention on the Beeb though. Thinking aloud are we all not being unpatriotic? I expect ex PM Truss would be nonplussed.

Don't tempt me. I like barking.

I'm good at it. I score points if the dog I'm barking at looks round.

I don't need a dog mask to do it though. But I might get thrown out of the pub 🤣
