Tooty Frooty Cheese Roll

This is soooooo yummy! Served together with a cheeseboard and an assortment of biscuits/crackers. For best results, and for MAXIMUM flavour prepare this recipe at least 24 hours in advance...it will keep for up to 4 days!!! The preparation time does NOT include the time it takes for the fruits and Port to "marinate" - (1-2 hours)
