Cheese Bureau (1)

The Cheese Bureau operated from 1965 until 1973, and its role was to promote Cheddar and Cheshire cheeses on behalf of the dairy boards of New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, England, and Wales. It ceased to operate when Britain entered the Common Market, as Commonwealth producers were then given fixed quotas of the amount of cheese they could export to the UK and therefore had no further interest in expanding the UK market.

I said, “Please, Louise,
Won’t you pass me the cheese?
Won’t you pass me the cheese?
’Cos I’ve got the bread and butter,
But I don’t have the cheese.”

I said, “Golly, Sam,
Won’t you pass me the ham?
Won’t you pass me the ham?
’Cos I’ve got the bread and butter and cheese,
But I don’t have the ham.”

Cheese, please, Louise.

Until we found the reason was
We’d just got out of bed!
