Guess I'm not going to that then! :lol:

Thanks for posting it though, I love seeing things like this. It's something I'd love to learn how to do one day!

Re: I think I'll.......

People can't see past "look at all the damage they've caused". Of course some of the behaviour is disgusting and I don't agree with the damage done to people's property and businesses, but it's hardly a coincidence that the last time something like this happened was last time a Tory gover...

Re: I think I'll.......

I have got to agree with grahamhobbs and John Headstrong (although, there is no rioting in my area and if there was I don't know how I'd feel. Well I do know, I'd be shit scared. I feel terrible for those of you who are affected). I'm in an area affected and I'm scared but I still agree with them t...

Re: Cob house

Absolutely! Any more pictures or info? Where was it? I love the recycling of that window. I've become a bit obsessed with salvaged windows coz I'm wanting to build a small greenhouse if I can.

noplastic bags, it's worth every penny. Between the economy, corruption, rising food and energy cost things will only get worse so if you can stay put. Let the kids have a snow day, or week as the case may be!

Pickling a load of beetroots. Pretty chioggas again. Pickled sliced roots and stems and shredded and froze the leaves to use as spinach sub in a stew. Bought a load of reduced to clear stuff at a co-op on way home from lottie the other night. That's gone in the freezer for later use.

Re: I think I'll.......

I actually do agree Southern Dave, these people are idiots, I mean who sh*ts where they eat but I also don't want to live in a police state. There's talk of curfews and things, it's slippery slope.

Re: best grape variety midlands

I can't offer any advice as I'm also new to growing vines but I'll just say that I used to drink a lovely wine that was from grapes grown in Shropshire so evidently it can be done very well around that part of the UK.
