Best cheese grater you've ever had?

[hot air baboon]

It's puzzling for sure.

...a prison governor's nightmare I'd have thought....a disconsolate population of hardened lifers packing cheese-graters...

They could retire the shiv, that's for sure.

Amen brother mow. That reminds me, "one man went to mow, went to mow a meadow." Is that you? Did you to a meadow go with one man and what happened next?

I seriously need to go outside for a bit or something.

I've used a lawnmower a few times in my life, but that's about it I'm afraid. Never mowed a meadow - that would be cruel to the meadow anyway, all those lovely wild flowers and the bees that rely on them.

Ever grated one?

I'm going outside, I may be some time.

Almost 6 pages and still no mention of Harry Roberts.

Or his favourite cheese grater.

If I was to grate a meadow, would I have to grate the underlying soil too? What about the poor little field mice - would they have to be minced as well?

Now you're introducing mincing to the thread.

Another 6 pages.

Tricky. Very tricky. I really don't have an answer for you mate. Thread fail.

I think that means we can leave the field mice in peace.

Good call.

I've just bought some extra mature cheddar. Crumbly but still good grating. And! I got a pound for £2.50. A pound of extra mature cheddar for £2.50 is awesome.

Grate the lot, scoff it and then tell us what cheese dreams you have.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

I think bmd must be asleep, having horrific cheese dreams.

I wonder if anyone's friend has ever come back from holiday and given them a cheese grater as a gift?

Nope. But then I don't have any friends.

 

[Onket]

We are fully aware of that.

I bought my first slippers (since I wore them as a kid) a couple of years ago, so did without them for about 30 years. I just wore shoes in the house - all the time too, as my feet get cold.

This is INSANE! Slippers are one of life's comforts. I live in mine. It feels weird to be inside in cold sock-only feet.

(Thread back on track )

...has that been fashioned out of a WWI era mortar shell casing...? ( they got very bored sitting around in those trenches )

 

[killer b]

ah, perhaps you're right and it isn't a cheesegrater at all but some kind of crudely fashioned edwardian precursor to the ped egg, made for treating trench foot?

Doubt it cos I've got one that old too!

Heading towards page 5. It's going to be massive this thread, I can feel it.

I am at home. I have socks on but no shoes. I might watch Eastenders on *Catch up* in a minute.
I made mash for my children today. I grated some cheese on top (quite a lot ) and stuck it in the oven, along with the rest of their dinner.
I don't know what to do with myself.

I am still loling loads at Nancy's ex bf....not just that he wore his slippers on the tube, to Acton but that he took them with him to stay at his mate's in the first place

Give that man a bucket of overpriced popcorn (or a bag of the cheap stuff, that I happen to have stuffed into my backpack )

 

[sheothebudworths]

Anyway.....CHEESE :-|

 

[Onket]

I have a grater related update-

Today I made chilli (grated carrot), bolognese (grated carrot), but then spoilt it by grating some cheese to go on top.

Still, it's clearly Carrot 2 - 1 Cheese.

I've not been on a train or to the cinema so no slipper related updates.

I've not put the bin out either, that was Tuesday (trainers).

 

[ringo]

I shall be using the smaller parmesan grater for tonight's tea.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Carrot in chilli or bolognese is wrong, grated or otherwise.

 

[Nancy_Winks]

sheothebudworths I laughed at the time too. But now, now I'm one of the ones who takes their slippers on overnights I'm not even kidding ask killer b I've left them behind at his before now! He kindly offered to post them iirc

 

[killer b]

I can confirm that nance's slippers are very snug.

It's your time to shine mate

It's actually the original design for the Fleshlight. Got to feel sorry for the testers
