I didn't know cheese was magnetic?

Hi Phil,

 

If you heat up 304 stainless it does become magnetic, however at the temperature required your cheese will not so much have melted but be somewhat burnt to a crisp !

 

Gibbo.

A clue, this is in Oxford. What is the translation?

"Bicycles left here will be removed". Not very good Latin, though. Duae rotae is just a literal translation of "two wheels"; I gather that the word cursorium is available. Perimentur seems wrong too. But I'm no Latinist; as for the second half of the notice, it's Greek to me. Though not to Mary Beard.

 

From that bit of googling, the sign is not in Oxford but in Cambridge, so what can one expect?
