I understand the meaning of "the cream of the crop" but I failed
to understand what do you mean by "hard cheese". So I asked
a few colleagues here and none of them understood it even though
one of them is really good at English. So I fired up WordWeb and
found it seems to be only used by Brits and mean "bad luck".
Interesting pun.
