Hi Jim and Listers, Of course I had to take a look at this and found information about the event here: http://www.fromecheeseshow.co.uk/ I wonder what local cheeses our Somerset ancestors would have eaten besides Cheddar Cheese. Besides the cheese, what would interest me at the show is the Country Pursuit Area where you can learn about rural crafts such as stickmaking and willow baskets. I note, too, that there will be an expert coracle maker there. Both my husband and I would be interested in that as, years ago, Ian made his own coracle and I wrote an article on coracles. There are different varieties of coracle. Ian's coracle is a Severn coracle. Josephine
