It won't surprise you to know that I find it almost impossible to walk past the Chamois car polishing leathers in shops without wondering whether I could 'knock' one up for real :) My household despairs of me! Perhaps I should assure Miles that if I were not at work today then I would, of course, be practicing my new onion chopping technique..... perhaps later when it dawns on me that there's nothing prepared for diner yet! Cid Melissa,

When I try to do this quickly I'm forever planing the surface off my fingernails. I'm gonna have to work on keeping that knuckle forward. Thanks. Dave Great tutorial!

Whilst you were all busy chatting about this wonderful lecture, I was busy putting it into action. Well, I can confirm that this has worked and I did not shed a tear either after 3 onions and a handful of shallots :). Now, the only time I have not been moved to tears was when I happened to be wearing contact lenses, folks. So, if you have any, keep them in whilst chopping onions but scrub your hands well afterwards, before removing your lenses :). Many thanks Miles, that was brilliant. Elsie Miles at all,
