Its the fact that the police appear to turn up to stop them that concerns me.

"Officer, theres been a crime!"

"Oh really sir, something I can ignore, like theft or burglary, causing misery and large financial loss, for which I can issue a reference number for the insurance and go back to my subsidised canteen?"

"No officer, its consenting adults chasing a cheese down a hill".

"Cyril, fire up the blues and twos, we got some right slags to apprehend!".

Aye, only a mad Englishman could have ever thought of rolling a cheese down a steep hill, and getting a load of folk to run after it to catch it for fun

At least they're not Irish and try and chase it up the hill

(waits for Preston to arrive on scene)

I'm sure there's others around the world, don't the Dutch do bogg snorkelling, I know they jump bogs or dykes on big poles
