Happy Birthday, dear @Speicher , happy birthday to you. Hip, hip, twoo.

Or is it Hoot, Hoot, Hooray? I can never remember.

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

It takes about three minutes. A lot of the information about sharpening, while probably really good advice, is written by people with time on their hands. When you use knives and chisels everyday you have to sharpen them quickly and efficiently.

You don't go on Deansgate!

Not usually, unless going out for beer. That said, I do pass Piccadilly Station on the bike, could always swipe one from the bottom of Piccadilly approach.

I have just bought my fruit and vegetables for the week. The problem was that on the checkout I went through the scales weren’t working, manager called, cue lots of button pressing and mumbling, eventually “You can have all the weighed items for free!”

You've mentioned Deansgate, and some neighbouring streets, a few times which is why those places were mentioned for free newspapers.

Other option is to remain dry.

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

For a professional it is well worth it. My younger son had a spell training to be a chef but gave it up and we inherited his knives. I bought them in the first place anyway.

The scythe stone is quick but if I have time on my hands I use a flat stone.
