A friend has just sat you down to tell you they have split with their spouse. You know how to behave- I have given you some very good ways to react (the receiving of my telling) and just listening is a good option if you are short of clever things to say.

Sometimes though a gift is a nice thing to do. It is a tangible way of saying “I feel your pain” or “I am so very sorry”. Or perhaps “I always thought he/she was an idiot”.

This lovely knife holder, called “the Ex” -will bring humour, hours of julienning and most certainly colour to any kitchen counter.

The perfect thing for  Tiger Woods wife, and Sandra Bullock -as they likely will enjoy the placement of the razor sharp bread knife.
