Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to John Goodwin
A truckle of cheese John. It's the barrel shape that cheese such as cheddar is cut from. This truck sold just cheese :)
Yes the town hall is beautiful. Thank you for your kind comments.

What a great town hall! A lovely modest size and design, unlike some of the more grandiose buildings some of our 'masters' like to build for themselves. I Like the citroën, full of character and I have learned what a truckle is, bonus! Great capture Rosa.
4 years ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Doug Shepherd club
Yes, I agree Doug, a lovely town hall. They also hold wedding ceremonies there and that always looks beautiful when they stand on the balcony for photos. A perfect job for the citroen....fits it perfectly I think :) Thank you for your lovely comments.
Best wishes, Rosa.

A very well composed picture, Rosa, with a lovely town hall and especially...a delightful citroën van in front of it...I have learned a new word, "truckle"!:-) It's a lively and peaceful scene at the same time!
P.S. I would like to thank you for letting me know my video can be seen...I have really appreciated that!
4 years ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Adele club
Thank you so much Adele. The town hall has been used in many Thomas Hardy films. It fits the bill very well :-) Thank you for your kind comments on this picture.
I changed my settings a while ago to allow flash player, which I found essential to watch the many excellent videos on ipernity.

I love cheese, Rosa, but I don't think I could eat a whole truckle. I love the architecture of the Town Hall. Cheers, Joe

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Joe, Son of the Rock club
You can get mini truckles Joe. LoL! I love cheese but must not eat too much of it unfortunately. Thank you for your kind comment. It is a favourite town hall of mine. Always lots going on inside it. Cheers, Rosa.

What a lovely find Rosa.................I've heard of a Truckle, but I've never before seen a "Truckle Truck".................but the vintage Citroen is the perfect vehicle to use!

A delightful capture!

I haven't heard 'a truckle of cheese' in many a long year (Mind you, I wouldn't in Spain would I!).
Lovely shot, Rosa!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Andy Rodker club
Well, living in the county of Cheddar cheese, I would be shot if I didn't know it :) I hear it quite often as there are often truckles of cheeses for sale or to be cut from in our High Street butcher's shop.

Not sure about truckle truck. What are they selling ?

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Christiane ♥.•*¨`*•✿
Thank you Christiane. They are selling cheese.
A truckle is the shape the cheeses are made into and stored before cutting.
Especially hard cheeses like cheddar.
