• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

I'm with you Glyn. Cheese and biscuits without butter is pointless. Solidarity brother.
 
Sainsbury's taste the difference gorgonzola.

Pedro Ximenez (PX) sherry goes really well with cheese.


You'll thank me.

Why is there even a debate about this? Butter always. Obvious surely?

This could become as divisive a topic as Leave/Remain... :shock:
 
Butter ? That's like putting custard on your chips.

Port salut is a cheese I've enjoyed lately.

Always first on my list when putting together a cheese board, Dicky.
 
I'm defo in the butter camp unless the cheese is brie. But regardless, has to be accompanied always by a glass of port.
 
Some of the best cheeses I've tasted lately come from Wales so you lot seem to be missing out going for French stuff like Port Salut IMO. I usually get bought a selection for Xmas and last Xmas was no exception. Angiddy from the Wye Valley is a really nice one and Perl Las (blue) and Perl Wen from Cenarth are superb. If you like a smoked one, you can do a lot worse that Pwll Mawr smoked Cheddar from Blaenafon. I don't use butter with cheeses as good as these as it dulls the flavour imo, but I do use it if it's more run of the mill stuff. TBH, with some of these Welsh ones and others that are as good, they taste so good, I sometimes don't even bother with the crackers. :D

How about Pule cheese on your biscuit? Butter or no butter?

Never heard of that to be fair. Not sure I'll be trying it any time soon not at that price anyway.👍
 
I like those Hovis cheese crackers and digestive biscuits, beautiful with a strong vintage cheddar, Jacobs selection box of cheese biscuits usually results in a gluttonous cheese fest of an evening. As for cheese there is nothing i won’t eat I love em all.

However i do not like and never have those cheesy flavoured snacks or cheese flavoured biscuits, can’t explain it, I suspect that it is something to do with the fact it is not real cheese.

Whilst working up north I was in a cafe and fancied a bit of fruit cake, the chap said do you want to cheese with it, I was quite shocked as I had never tried cake and cheese but what a delightful treat and much underrated Wensleydale cheese with fruit cake.
 
Just opened an Aldi by me and popped in for a look, bought assortmment box of crackers which were superb. I love cheese but it has to be good. For blue Colton Basset is the best Stilton money can buy. Perl Las is very nice i agree. Comte is very good from Lidl when they have it. But one to look out for is kaltbach.

Now I like a strong cheese. But I was sent a small wheel of Olavidia, 2021 world cheese of the year. Not cheap. Not that I have, but like licking the wettest, scabbiest goat. Unbelievably strong and impervious to an electric toothbrush on the gnashers. Could still taste it for days.
