I bought Beast a voucher for an online Cheese Tasting as one of his Christmas presents, and the tasting was today. Happily for me (and I honestly didn't realise when I bought it) the tasting pack is designed for two people, so I got delicious cheese as well. He chose a Blue Cheese tasting session, we received six very respectable wedges of cheese two days ago, and set ourselves up with some unbuttered home-made bread and glasses of water. (I didn't order the variant that comes with drink, but some people were having three kinds of port with it!).

I find it quite impossible to describe the subtleties in six different variations on the theme of blue cheese, and there's not much point attempting to try, but they were all delicious in slightly different ways. Great stuff. The whole thing came from The Courtyard Dairy, at Settle, www.thecourtyarddairy.co.uk, and they do cheese subscriptions.... A very successful Christmas present.

Sable spent quite a while determinedly licking Beast's hand afterwards.

Today, my COVID testing kit arrived. I was asked if I'd take part in a survey and said yes, so. The courier to retrieve the test is arriving tomorrow, between—hah! 8am and 6pm. I would have appreciated it being somewhat more specific, I must say. But I shall have to poke a stick up my nose at half past seven in the morning, just in case they arrive first thing. Joy.
