Hard cheese!

I've posted before about the Cooper's Hill cheese rolling event, where people chase a wheel of cheese down a steep hill in Gloucestershire.  Traditionally the cheese is Double Gloucester, made locally, but this year it will be Dutch Gouda - why?? Because the kill-joys who have been trying for years to get this event banned have told the Double Gloucester makers that if anybody is injured (which considering the steepness of the slope is pretty much a given) they (the makers) could be sued for damages.  And so they've decided not to take the risk, and the Dutch have stepped in to save the event.  Good on them, but how sad that there are those who seem set on denying others their fun.
