In my last post I made a dreadful faux pas for which I must apologise.
It has been brought to my attention that in the 5th paragraph I referred to a cheese "mould" in respect of a plastic mould in which the curd is moulded overnight into the finely moulded and easily recognisable circular shape found in cheese shops and all good retailers.
However, it appears that in the cheese making world the term 'mould' has a rather different and fundamentally important meaning so to avoid confusion the mould is actually referred to as a hoop.
I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any embarrassment I may have caused the cheese making fraternity and can only claim in mitigation that I am new to this brotherhood and will strive to bring no further shame on my employers.
The error was highlighted when next weeks rota was issued and I noticed that this week I have been cutting and loading whereas next week I will be turning and hoop washing. Hitherto I had thought of a hoop as a euphemism for the anus and I will do my very best to rid my mind of such contaminants.
For those of you who are ill informed concerning the subject of cheese I will endeavour to bring you closer to this wonderful world over the coming weeks.
Perhaps this could culminate in a small quiz after which a certificate could be issued to those attaining respectable scores.

About Me
- beefandcheese
- Despite compelling evidence to the contrary this was never meant to be about either beef or cheese, subjects in which I have little more than a passing interest. It is true however that the fates have recently conspired to find me work at a cheese factory but this is little more than a cruel, coincidental joke told at my expense.
