One of the oldest traditional activities in the UK is the cheese rolling competition at Blockworth, Gloucestershire State. Every May, people are chasing the Double Gloucester cheese at a steep Cooper Hill. It is said that this tradition was born from the birthday ceremony of Roman times. There are other cheese rolling events in the UK such as Uffington White Horse in Oxfordshire. The so-called British Empire Metrology System (United States of United States, British unit) was born from a Roman unit. The Romans also calculated it in feet, and they were divided into 12 inches. (In Latin, languages ​​are English, English words are coming from now.) Five pounds of English, 1000 steps (milpath) English has been awarded miles. Roman gallons are parliament (worth 0.92 US gallons). The word "pinto" comes from the Latin pictor ("painted") corresponding to the ship's painting mark, passing through the ancient French Pinthi. Other units like pounds only developed in the Middle Ages.

Cheese-Rolling and Wake is a tournament to be held at Cooper's Hill in Gloucester, England every Monday in May. The game involved abandoning a 9 pound wheel cheese (of course double gloucester cheese) and rolling it from above. All participants will follow it. Because the slope is steep and the speed of the cheese exceeds 100 km / h, no one can get it. Therefore, the winner is not the one who grabbed the cheese but the first person to arrive at the foot of the mountain. For the meaning given by this expression in the field of logic and critical thinking, the concept of "landslide" is also relevant.
