Very Disappointed!


I needed a couple of new kitchen knives, so I've just popped into town to buy some.

I bought two Taylor's Eye Witness kitchen knives, one a paring knife, the other a chef's knife.


So, why are you so disappointed, Cro, I hear you asking.

Well, no-one asked me if I was over 18. Frankly I was shocked!

    1. That must have been it; they couldn't see my youthful charms.

  2. I have similar experiences all the time and I am 89.

  3. As I am in the mood for poetry tonight this put me in the mind of Hilaire Belloc and I am sure he would have ended the story with a line that you should have reported said omission to the appropriate authority.

  4. Hello from Idaho and found a link to your blog from High Riser.
    Last time I bought a knife was from a thrift store.
    If you have time stop by for a cup of coffee

  6. You need to part expose your strongly branded underwear clad buttocks, wear a baseball cap backwards and use the eff word a lot.

  7. Ha Ha. I thought you were going to say because the knives weren't sharp enough.

    1. I haven't actually used them yet. I've got a good supply of plasters.

  8. "Made in Sheffield" so they should be good.

    1. I've been buying Taylor's Eye Witness knives for ages; they're always good.

  9. You need a good knife to release the new ones from the packaging.

  10. You've reached the stage/age of a vintage wine and an aged cheese. Savour it!
