To ask for some urgent cheddar advice

[Willow4987]

We’re about an hour away from cheddar gorge and Not sure where to stop for lunch

I’ve got an energetic 2 year old who needs lunch but also maybe somewhere with a garden and grass?

A lot of places on trip advisor just have stone wall terraces

@LongPauseNoAnswer

Cheddar gorge was read wholly wrong by me who is not from the UK nor ever lived there. I had to read the OP three times before I realised that the cheddar gorge is a PLACE not an immensely enjoyable activity.

YABU

Well, not your fault LongPauseNoAnswer, we used to have these things called Proper Nouns, and you used them for names and it made everything clearer, which is the whole point of punctuation. I mourn the loss of the proper noun. Nobody can be arsed these days.

And now I want some cheese too. Cornish Cove from M&S, strength 6 please.

I came for the cheese. #disappointed

Cheddar Gorge is a place not an instruction.

@MikeUniformMike

Cheddar Gorge is a place not an instruction.

Not in this house.

@MrsTerryPratchett, edam you, you made me chuckle. I'll think caerphilly before I post again.

@sapnupuas

I was hoping this would be about the cheese.

Me too, I was expecting a cheese based emergency.

@fishonabicycle omg, their home made beans on toast is absolutely divine. Wish they sold them to takeaway!

I was coming here to recommend the extra mature, pre-sliced stuff in M&S if you needed a treat - the only downside is they don't put bits of paper between the slices, so it can be tricky to get the slices off whole.

Did @Willow4987 ever come back to the thread? Or is she still roaming the Gorge looking for a toddler lunch?

@DobbyTheHouseElk no sorry we managed to find a nice pub with a lovely garden for him to roam around in

I was so looking forward to a thread about emergency cheese

@50shadesoflunacy well in a roundabout way it was. The toddler needed to run around at lunch and I need a ploughman’s!

That’s good. Did you go to the Gorge? It’s pretty up there.

CAn't beat a decent Welsh cheese IMO Caerphilly crumbled over leek and potato soup, Teifi with grapes and apples etc...

I remember buying a Ferrero rocher milkshake from there once, many moons ago. Never managed to find another quite like it.

Cheddar Gorge is closing and making 40 redundant... in the news today

I mean the Caves, sorry.

You're in the wrong place. Head for The Cheese Society, Lincoln, may take a few hours. Seriously, haven't you heard of Trip Advisor? You can search on "nearby".

Did you go to Priddy? There's a nice pub for lunch there.

@Toddlerteaplease
What kind of advice does Cheddar give?
Is he in the running to be the next Judge Rinder or Judge Judy?

She has an opinion on everything. Can't comment about Judge Rinder, as she's never seen it!

I'm disappointed this isn't about cheese

@Toddlerteaplease He doesn't look impressed by the interruption. I'd back out of the room very slowly 😉

Nah, she loves any attention.
