Hello from me, another Skippy the bush kangaroo. In the great land of OZ, Cypriots are referred to as Cyprian. When we 1st moved to Cyprus, I also use to use the word Cyprian and people used to look at me strangely! I think I have it in an encyclopedia somewhere.

Hi JoJo

Yeah Australia does funny things to folks ... :lol:

I am sure Kangaroo is genuine, I have a 6th sense about these things 8) (Tripod says no!) ...

I think the boys were getting carried away with macho talk today, you know, beer, football, airplanes, relieving themselves etc.

Rediscovering the delights of cheese and bread for supper tonight .... :wink:

The best cheese in the World for taste, character, ooommpphhh and bite has got to be Kefalotiri ..

Sorry it's not Cypriot .. but it has long been a favourite and now that I have tasted every cheese UK has to offer, France, Italy and most of the German and Dutch varieties ( two :P ) ... it is Number One on my list for possessing most of the qualities desirable in a cheese 8)

I don't mind it melted into a pasta sauce, or small pieces with walnuts in pastry ....

But it's too rich. And I like cheese you can cut into chunks. In fact I really like that word ...... chunk!

Chunk of cheese ..... Mmmm! 8)

What do you think of it?

I love 'chunks' of a good farmhouse cheddar or stilton, but Roquefort is not a 'chunky' cheese. Perhaps because of its high salt content. Its still my fav.

I used to love a Cherrywood Smoked Cheddar (from a Cheesemonger patronised by Charles and Camilla ... but I didn't let that put me off! :roll: ) .... which was just heavenly and you had to stop talking to savour it .... 8) ... accompanied by black grapes Mmmmm!

No doubt about it, the King ( or of course Queen ) of cheeses is Stilton.
