    eBay

    I got a lovely flame mahogany bar for £33. It took four men to get it out of their house and into the Luton van.
  2. So sorry for your loss. It is so painful reading stories like this as it brings back all the grief. I think about my lab every single day and he’s been gone three years now. I know it sounds strange, but I feel that somehow he is still with us, and I don’t believe in that kind of stuff normally.
  3. Cwis Packham does a good one I believe! 🤣🤣🤣
  4. Cornwall is already like a Swiss cheese without digging for tungsten 🤣
  5. That .1% is the manufacturer’s cop out.
  6. One this morning on the bird table 987 First squirrel I have seen since January
  7. There is an old leather ‘leg of mutton’ case for sale on Facebook near Lincoln at £60
  8. Looks like a red cartridge has fallen out of the pocket and landed on the floor next to your right leg 😂
  9. I dabble occasionally. My advice would be to use good quality flour. I now get all my flours and yeasts from Bakery Bits. Great site with good advice. They are very knowledgeable of all things baking. For books, have a look at Crust and Dough, both written by Richard Bertinet. I would also say, ditch the bread maker and get hands on. There is nothing quite like that first crust from a freshly baked loaf covered with lashings of a good quality butter. 🥖🍞
  10. Hungry people these computer boffins. Cookies, bit, nibble, bytes, apple

    With a name like Bercow, she must be an old boiler!
  12. You can eat beeswax as people do when they eat honey in the comb. An even better option in my opinion is to mix chopping board oil and beeswax to make your own food safe wax in a 4 to 1 ratio. That’s 4 parts chopping board oil to 1 part beeswax. Heat them gently in a Bain Marie until the beeswax melts. Pour into containers and let it cool. Wax finished. Just rub it in to the wood, leave it for a few hours then gently buff. It will be absorbed in to the wood, so apply a couple on more coats. Refresh as necessary. There are loads of videos on YouTube showing you how to make it.
  13. Cointreau and sugar or Amaretto and sugar. Delicious 😋
  14. I saw those on YouTube. They look like a nice bit of kit. Couldn’t find a UK supplier though.
