Richard - if you are out shopping, could you bring a couple?

I will bring a stick then.

I think bringing some good french bread would be great!

Richard, should one bring some bread or crackers?

Correct!

How are you supposed to lead a country with 300 different kind of cheese?

Something like that isn't it?

Sebastien - I may have it wrong but I think that is how we use the term in the UK - anyway - the idea is to enjoy the wine and the cheese!

As a matter of interest - what did General de Gaulle say about governing France and cheese? - a quiz question!

'Bon viveur' seems strange to me, it's like english version of French language, in France we say 'Bons vivants'

Dutch Vermeer named world's best cheese

Hundreds of cultured spectators nibbled on cheese and crackers, waiting patiently for an hour as dozens of judges deliberated on Wednesday night before naming a Dutch Vermeer the world's best cheese.

"In the past, unless you were a super cheese geek, this is not something you went to," said Jeanne Carpenter, executive director of Wisconsin Cheese Originals, an organisation of artisan cheese fans. "But getting to try 15 different cheeses from 15 different countries, plus meeting the best of Wisconsin's cheesemakers, people love that."
