Piece of left over oak worktop.
When we moved into our current house 12 years ago the kitchen was falling apart and we changed it. We chose oak work tops, still looking great by the way, but with some spare the joiner fitting it cut 2 chopping boards for us. We are still using them, they still look great, they will likely see us out. Great choice to be doing what you are ?

My wife reminds me it’s beech. But same applies. I made myself a chopping board that’s still in use when we did our kitchen some ten years ago. My efforts with this new one convince me to make another as I’ve still got a fair bit of unused worktop left.?

Played yesterday with our 17yr old England Womens Order of Merit 2021 winner yesterday. She’s got a CH of +6 ? and was a joy to watch a play golf with. And a lovely unaffected young lass to boot.

You’re probably fortunate that it’s beech.
Danish Oil on oak can be a risk due to the tannins in the oak, I’ve had a few projects where the oak has blackened when it’s reacted with the Danish Oil. It’s the chance you take.
My recommendation for the next one you make is to use mineral oil instead (also known as cutting board oil).

Strictly has been an uplifting joy this year, a joy so needed in these difficult times. Yes of course it’s about dancing and the celebs learning to dance, but it’s so much more than that…???Masterchef and Strictly - for once both my favourites won

Thankyou for posting this. Just watching the introductions has triggered so much happy memories and reflections on sitting with my dad and brother watching Superstars…and of course David Vine and Ron Pickering…sports voices of the 70s…thankyou.
Popped out for a coffee and ended up having a roast dinner, and we knew half the staff from other bars and restaurants that had closed. Great to meet old friends.

What did you make of the Masterchef final? I thought the eventual winner was lucky to get through and the other two were head and shoulders above him. Then the lad who smashed every round made a right cock up in the final and the other did bloody steak and chips ?
