Come off it guys! Satire is a very powerful weapon in the hands of a good writter. This is not funny or clever or well written. Its crap! There is no credible substance to the core of this article - thats why it doesn't work. The content is incorrect so the black humour doesn't work either. You thin...

I'm horrified and wondering whether to end my link with the forum. Firstly I have lived all my active life in the territory of IRA terrorist attacks on mainland UK and have been near their bomb explosions 3 times. You must keep the scale of the treat in perspective. More people were killed in train ...

My OH recommends cheap whisky - external on the cat or dog that is!

Go to bed!

Another "sorry but" comment - I used OSB alot when building my house in UK and had some left over. Mixed concrete on it and it fell apart. When the water gets in it disintergrates very quickly. We have 3 of these corales an we are planning a 4th so that we are self sufficient in compost at...

:scratch: is summary of OH response. The acid in the oak discolours the iron not the other way round. Marking like shouldn't be that quick. Windows shouldn't be made with iron - it should be copper/brass/stainless steel! Out of curiosity he has emailed Osmo in Germany to see if they have any ideas. ...

I 'm wonderig how many out of date pots of tahini are there around ?

Muddywitch should you be renamed to Muddyleprechaun if you can swing an axe in your polytunnel...or perhaps your polytunnel is tardis like so the witch part would be more appropriate!! :iconbiggrin: I'm only jealous I don't have 500euros to buy one, although we are making something interesting and h...

I know this is an open site but seeing as you are sick and a long way from home knowing soemone is thinking of you might help abit :sunny: The urticaria may be also a symptom.
