The best things in life are worth that little bit of extra effort.I was brought up to acknowledge this as a truism - and I firmly believe that there is a lot of truth in it... whether it refers to amazing socks or danish cheese.
But really. Enough is enough!
Somewhere out there someone is bound to stock havarti cheese so I no longer have to drive the fifty miles (exactly - I google mapped it) to buy some in Sprucefield when I get the cravings.
Based on a conservative 40p per mile for travel costs, adding on the £1.70 that Sainsbury's charge for the 200g blocks, that works out at almost £220 per kilo! Over $9 an ounce for those of you living stateside.
All of this leads me to four conclusions:
1. It had better be some mighty fine cheese.
2. My mental arithmetic skills are on fire today.
3. I have far too much thinking time on my hands.
and 4. Someone could make a killing selling the stuff on street corners.
