If you want to be really sophisticated, you could join on a bread-board edging to the left and right sides of the worktop aperture, thus capping / eliminating any end grain!

God knows what the fascination is with belfast sinks...Everyone had them 50 years ago and couldnot wait to bin them...I think they look sht and as everyone is noticing,a pain.Let's go back to coal fired ovens too!!!
Sorry, I phrased that really badly. By standing water, I didn't mean water sitting on the upper surface of the work top. I (think I) understand the need for a drip channel along the front edges, namely (as you said) that it prevents the water tracking back under the work top but why would tracking be an issue if the water is going to track back in to the belfast sink.
Sorry, I am not being combative. I love the fact that over the years I have learnt so much from this site and look forward to people (politely) exposing my ignorance.

No problem, neither am I. I was only trying to explain what the instructions meant, but I agree they are not always sensible on site.
Happy to be corrected any time
