Hi all

Dropping by to explore my (latent) interest in home brewing -- currently 6 days into a GBP, with eyes on fermenting it properly. Having planted by garden with "left overs" from the the lader this year (peas, garlic, potatoes, onions and tomatoes) I am loving the ideas shared here.

Speak soon no doubt.....

Off to teach making a solar oven to Year 8 now....

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
