Hopefully grumpy sees this so he doesn't have to worry about dessert and of course, wanted to let you all know too...
I am going to make my homemade chocolate chip cookies from scratch for tomorrow as a sweet treat after the cheese. A nice little extra to look forward to. | | The following 8 users would like to thank JLF for this useful post: | |

Thanks Grumpy for some fine cheeses. I'm a little bit homesick now after the Lancashires. Still, we had a lovely afternoon sampling the beers and cheeses. A big thanks too to the cookie baker - they were very, very good!!! Hopefully see you all again in July.

Thanks to my 3 gorgeous waitresses today for making it a goodun (and very efficient at that, no waiting today that I could see ), and thanks to all who came. The weather once again was smiling for us. Next one is in July!

Thank you Grumpy and your helpers!
It was a beautiful day, the cheeses were delicious, the cookies were addicting, the company was wonderful and the beers (from what I heard) were yummy too.
Unfortunately I had to leave just when someone started playing some wonderful tunes on the guitar.
I look forwards to July's event!

I'm so gutted I missed this!! For some reason I thought it was today - I know, the invite clearly says 28th and I even put in on my calendar for Saturday...but somehow it got confused in my mind.
Hope a great day was had by all and will definitely be there for the July event!

The next one is on the 9th July and we're hoping that the weather will be as kind to us as it was on Saturday. And here's a few pics that have been sent to me today, if anyone has any more, feel free to post!      | | This user would like to thank grumpygrapefruit for this useful post: | |
