    Many years ago, I saw an old friend of mine, a chef in a local restaurant, take a huge chunk out of his hand whilst opening oysters.

    Unfortunately, he wasn’t wearing gloves, but he was experienced.

    I am just so nervous doing it, and, even in the fishmonger, it takes about 10 minutes to open a dozen oysters.

    Not surprised. Lethal things...but well worth the risk.

    I am fortunate to have an excellent wet fishmonger close to me, and can often buy a dozen for about €5, opened in front of me (I don't know if you have ever tried, but opening oysters is a real bugger, even with a proper knife).

    I always wear garden gloves when opening them...and am rightly considered a bit of a wus 🤣
