My first lump of cheese

I was four years old, barely walking when I had my first lump of cheese. I consider this to be the most important stage of my childhood development.

I like to believe that i remember, although I have probably been told since, that it was a local cheddar. One of those ones where you have to strip away that lovely waxy packaging to get at it.

My next door neighbour, Marie, is weird! She eats the wax and brings the cheese round for me...
