Yesterday, Jo told me that her friend Ned, the author of A Cheesemonger’s History of the British Isles has a YouTube channel.

I met Ned a couple of times and he’s that perfect combination of knowledge and enthusiasm for his subject. Watching Ned taking about cheese is very soothing in this imperfect world. If you haven’t bought the book, you really should because it’s excellent.

So go and watch and subscribe to Ned’s channel and learn about cheese. For my family who have no cheese manners, there is a video on how to cut cheese.
