I want to buy some cheese!...

And don't forget that the Tonbridge Farmers Market is tomorrow, that's Sunday, at the very genteel time of 9-30 to 1pm. So you could even have a bit of a lie in and still be able to get down there at a reasonable time. There'll be lots of produce left whatever time you arrive as there are over 50 stalls there. It really is like a food festival and well worth a visit if you haven't been already. I'm particularly looking forward to it because I think tomorrow is "cheese day" and I simply love the stuff. From the single most popular cheese in the world, Cheddar to Cheshire, Wensleydale, Brie, Roquefort , Port Salut, Danish Blue, Red Leicester, Lord of the Hundreds Sheeps Cheese, Goats Cheese, Danish Blue, Gorgonzola you name it I'll eat it. In fact that rather reminds me of that famous Monty Python Sketch, one of their best ever. I remember a mate way back in my Sixth Form days who once recited the whole sketch from start to finish. Some feat I can tell you. If you, like me, have fond memories of that sketch you can read about it and see a full list of the cheeses here or even see it on YouTube here Otherwise just go to the market tomorrow and taste a few for yourself....

Love the market of course, but does anyone know of its long term future ? and if it might become weekly

Limited cheese selection in my opinion what about selling some Stichelton is just as creamy but slightly deeper in flavour than Stilton, Berkswell a hard, fruity sheep’s milk cheese, Ardrahan a rich, creamy pungent beauty and Innes Log a nutty, goaty delight.

Come on guys!
