OK, I know it's a really easy mistake to make. It's just that every time I read this - more and more frequently - my mind conjures something like this. Enjoy!

It is indeed. Sadly the original cheese lounge has disappeared into the Facebook ether - if only there was an unusual combination of words I could use to search for it again. Oh, wait.... 😁

Oh God, that is priceless🤣🤣 I need a dedicated cheese room in my life. I love cheese.

Just came across the ‘digged up’ post as mentioned above. Yikes😬

TheFifthTellytubby · 02/08/2025 15:57

In fairness the "digged" poster later said English isn't her first language, had to look up the correct form of the verb and saw the funny side. As a lifelong leaner of German, I can sympathise with the struggle of memorising irregular verbs - someone once asked me what the song "Moonlight Shadow" was about and I inevitably got the verb wrong and in German it came out sounding something like "It's about a man who got shitted..." 🤔😂

I'm leaner of German than you are.

Cheese lounge! That beats Terry Cotter and Chester draws.

Saw a great one the other day - someone on FB was selling a "cheese lounge" ... 😂

Were they from Wensledale?

Pedant5corner · 02/08/2025 17:49

It's Wensleydale.

Pedant5corner · 02/08/2025 17:49

It's Wensleydale.

I think that might have been the point 😂

TheFifthTellytubby · 02/08/2025 19:38

"...learner of German...". Although being "leaner" would be nice. Far too much time sitting on the cheese lounge. 😁

Seen on a thread today 'I'm going to do it in a relaxed manor'

I really want one of those!

Could have done with this thread to make me chuckle over the Covic years…..

backslashruby · 03/08/2025 17:54

Just seen a van for sale 'wood accept £5K'.

Or wasn't it the corvid years? Crowing with laughter either way Wink

This week I have seen threads with….galaxie, Tetnus booster, Vague Convention and the passed 2 years.

GarlicStyle · 04/08/2025 03:57

The Vague Convention takes place in a relaxed manor 😏

I can't work out what vague convention should be 🤔

I’d imagine that was a typo for Hague.

It’s a convention where no one quite gets to the point and they skirt around the issues.

Secretive? Possibly?

Decorative I think

We have a lot of those at work. I might start calling them that.

People are sewing the seeds. Sounds a fiddly job

Yes 😂 And people actually do it! (Tiny beads are called seed beads.) Not sure there are still ateliers like this, but it makes for a romantic AI image.

They are sowing the seeds of myopia and arthritis, mind you.
