I totally wanna check that out someday.
In the meantime, I'd be interested in any cheese-eating festivals.

Cheese rolling is in GLOUCESTER there are loads of people who actually do it (quite a few end up with sprains).
Right as for cheese eating you should head on down to Cheddar gorge in somerset. Yes it is really the place where they make cheddar and there are loads of cheese making shops where you can try it for free as well as free cider!

I'm probably going to check it out. I get back from my Contiki tour on the 25th so the timing is pretty good. (It's on the 28th)
Has anyone got any tip for getting there, staying there or partying there?

you can get the mega bus to bristol from London for about a pound and then head on up to gloucester. I would tend to do Gloucester in a day and stay in Bristol.
