9.1.12 Cheese & Wine

I have no great facts on wine, but I have discovered something interesting today, as regards cheese.  Here it is:

Four per cent of all cheese put on store shelves in the UK gets stolen.

What an amazing fact.  This came to light in the article I was reading about the exploits of "cheese and wine pilferer Antony Worrall Thompson".  What a fantastic description, for the little chap who could be one of The Borrowers - well, based on size, yes, but what with him stealing rather than borrowing, I think he's disqualified himself.  What the fuck was he thinking, repeatedly nicking stuff from Tesco?  Still, it brought some much-needed amusement from a totally unexpected direction.  Further, it's given me a break from reading about and seeing pictures of Sarah Harding, who seems on a mission to rustle up as much sympathy for her self-induced troubles as she can.  Sorry, but that's not news really.  Instead, maybe Take-a-Break magazine could cover her story.  That would give the useless Melanie Sykes something to waffle on about, now that she's finished touting Wynsors Shoes.
