Brisbane Cheese Awards results

I won't be eating cheese for a while after judging at the Brisbane Cheese Awards on Saturday. It was all white coats and very attractive hair nets so you are not getting any photos!

The tables were groaning with plates and plates of cheese which the judges worked through to find the top cheeses in each section. Congratulations to the organisers for staging a great event.

Here are the results.
