I was treated to a sword fight and abundant array of cheese and crackers!

PASSERSBY in Central London have been treated to the bizarre spectacle of two mediaeval knights fighting to decide what is the best cheese.

The two warriors clashed in Baker Street on Thursday in a
joust for the title of "King of the Blue Cheeses". In the blue, smelly corner was Saint Agur, representing the French cheese of the same name, and in the other blue corner was St Ilton, representing Albion's own Stilton.

Advertising I'm sure Grim would approve of.

Yeah, I remember those....

The people at the Smoking Gun got their hands on the soldier comments about some new MRE's being fielded by the Army.

Some highlights:

"Don't ever give the stuffed cabbage to a soldier again, even POWs deserve better."

"The vanilla pudding is so good that I ripped it open. Licked the inside and rolled around on top of it like a dog."

It sounds marginally better than the stuff I ate 20 years ago, though. Anybody remember the dehydrated pork patty? Yeccch.
