My coffee grinder creates so much static that the little hairs on the back of my fingers stand up when I take the grounds container out.

How/what with ?
Our knife sharpener is rubbish.

I find that the sharpening stone I use for my woodworking tools is effective, followed by a leather strop.

Just finished catching up on all the work I had to do by Monday. A few teachers are on long term sick leave, dropping like flies but no idea why. Not Covid for sure. Adobe Studio and Powtoon have been used extensively today.

Time for wine and food.

Got my Halloween costume today as well. I used the Scream outfit last year and the year before, and the kids loved it. This year, Deadpool.

Sadly, no chance of a bike ride or gym today.

That is the price you pay for making people go into work when they are sick. It could easily spread throughout the workforce .

I am sure it is...... but I want quick and simple

We don't want to know what you get up to after sharpening your tools !

I use a scythe stone but also a flat double sided stone sometimes lubricated with a little oil. I learned all about knife care from a mad Irishman who had a vast collection. A retired army major.

An unexpected decision made this morning...Lamb it'd going to be on Xmas day. Never was a turkey lover, it's OK but perhaps my least favourite meat...so an easy suggestion to agree to.

My son is a chef and pays £100s for a single knife. He uses a stone and in between one of those rods.

Nice lamb takes some beating.
Mint sauce ??

My sharpening steel is of inferior quality to my knives, hence the knife removes bits from it rather than t'other way round 😂
