Had family round for lunch today. Did a very nice cheese board afterwards, which included some Stilton. Anyway we have a nice cutlery canteen for special occasions, which includes one cheese knife. But once knife was used for the Stilton, the Stilton ended up on all the other cheeses, including a nice, delicate goats cheese! So do I invest in more cheese knives for our set which a bit pricey?! Or is the etiquette to have just one knife and not worry?


Serious question about a really non serious issue :-)

I just realised that after I typed it jeremy. sharp as a knife, me. oh... ;)

Thank you all very much for you replies, I can sleep soundly again now. I rather am drawn to the Stilton shovel myself owing to the fact I could quite easily eat a whole block of that good stuff in one sitting. Failing that, one for Stilton, one for the others seems sensible; although ultimately I will now want to find a second knife with 'Stilton' written on the handle, as I can easily see me jumping up mid cheeee cut shouting at an unsuspecting guest 'stop you're using th Stilton knife on the stinking bishop!'


Edited to say Stilton scoop purchased! Thanks all.

    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
