While on the subject of cheese, can't ignore the fine cheeses produced in America's Dairyland.

Just for completeness...

 

I'm not going to insert a video clip that will upset @KWA .

All I will say is that I know a cheese shop owned by Mr Wensleydale that doesn't sell any of those cheeses...and he has a really bloody annoying Basuki player too !!

Then may I recommend Norwegian Brun Ost. It tastes like caramel chocolate and it is normally just left in the fridge to take small slivers off as you would caramel chocolate !!

Then one might well argue, why not just consume caramel chocolate should one desire the taste of caramel chocolate?

I worked in this region for a number of years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Corners

The Four Corners is a region of the Southwestern United States consisting of the southwestern corner of Colorado, southeastern corner of Utah, northeastern corner of Arizona, and northwestern corner of New Mexico. The Four Corners area is named after the quadripoint at the intersection of approximately 37° north latitude with 109° 03' west longitude, where the boundaries of the four states meet, and are marked by the Four Corners Monument. It is the only location in the United States where four states meet. Most of the Four Corners region belongs to semi-autonomous Native American nations, the largest of which is the Navajo Nation, followed by Hopi, Ute, and Zuni tribal reserves and nations. The Four Corners region is part of a larger region known as the Colorado Plateau and is mostly rural, rugged, and arid. In addition to the monument, commonly visited areas within Four Corners include Monument Valley, Mesa Verde National Park, Chaco Canyon, Canyons of the Ancients National Monument and Canyon de Chelly National Monument. The most populous city in the Four Corners region is Farmington, New Mexico, followed by Durango, Colorado.

Very interesting map. I've been checking on google and cannot find any errors. Soccer/rugby in Wales are very close for the most popular sport position

Yep. I'm guessing in the 70s Rugby would have trounced Soccer (I love how the Welsh pronounce "soccer" - my Dad's Welsh BTW) but less Grammar schools meant less top class rugby players and standards dropped for a decade. During that time Welsh players were beginning to play for top Div One teams like Leeds until eventually Gareth Bale came along and took over the mantle from the likes of Terry Yorath etc.. 

So I think nowadays I agree with the 50/50 split..

Port Hedland is the largest iron ore loading port in Australia and one of the largest in the world. Located in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia, the port recorded a throughput of more than 561 million tons between 2021 and 2022. Nearly all (98.6%) of that cargo was iron ore, which is used primarily to make steel.
