Great program, thanks for bringing it to my attention, would have missed it otherwise. Something along similar lines of interest on last night on BBC Scotland about whale hunting in the Faroes that you might be able to catch on iPlayer. The Islands and the Whales...

Mine attaches to the hub, via hitch that attaches to the hub axle skewer. Simple to set up and quick to hitch and unhitch. Never tried a seat post attachment, but would imagine the hub attachment is more stable. Seat post might be more maneuverable in very tight places. I think they tend to...

I was just about to start a thread on this! - Please remember to pack a shovel! - If you feel the need to dig a hole, maybe take the time to walk reasonable distance away from the camp spot. Especially if it's a popular spot, used by others. It's only something you need to do once a day, so a...

I regularly use a 2 wheeler trailer with the bike. Highly recommend for moving stuff about and saving unnecessary car trips. So versatile. Easy to tow, don't notice it too much when up to speed, braking or cornering. Just have to be aware of it when passing narrow spaces or tight turns. Can be...

I got a Defender over five years ago now as I had the itch to scratch. There weren't any other cars out there that interested me at the time. Now the itch is well and truly scratched but still nothing I can find that i would want to swap it for. It's our only car, our family car. Never let us...

I cycle a lot anyway, it's my main mode of transport. Cycling even more for fun now as kayaking and hill walking are on hold. The car has only logged 36 miles since 24th March! Have taken to cycling on the road for my daily commute as the usually empty cycle path I use is these days jam packed...

Whoa, this thread is making me thirsty. Gonna pour myself a large Grouse.

I'm certainly not a qualified yoga instructor but I just gave a 30min yoga lesson in the living room for the rest of my family. It was superb, a whole half an hour where I didn't even think or talk about the virus! Feeling great for it.

How are they going to define "Dry wood?" Most likely a specified moisture content, which probably means buying kiln dried wood. How much energy does it take to kiln dry one tonne of wet wood? I buy wet (green) wood, easier to cut and split. Then I stack and season until ready. Surely nobody...

At least if you can see it and hear it you get some warning regarding the potential invasion of your privacy!

I converted an old mountain bike using a kit off the internet. It was a crank drive motor made by Bafang. Was about £300 for the motor, £300 for the battery and another £100ish for all the other bits. It was a really good quality kit, took about an hour or two to fit. Very good range, lots of...

I have been attacked by clegs that not only could bite through clothing, but also if brushed off without killing would return to bite at the exact same spot. This happened while riding a bike a bike at the time!

I used meths gel in my mkettle, which worked well, zero smoke. Also hexi tablets work well too, no smoke but big orange flame out the top and quite smelly.

You need to get on the case and get it all sorted. I would imagine the planning office is a busy place and you'll need to get their attention to make things happen. It's a great project, you need to get back out there and start swinging your hammer around as soon as possible! That silo will be...

That silo looks fantastic, would make a great dwelling! I can understand the planning dept being on your case though... It's a shame as you seem to have put a fair bit of work into it. Did you add that concrete foundation also?

Same trail, later on the way home. Just my tyre tracks from the morning, and the path of a rabbit or two. The only souls to make this passage today. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk

Had a fun cycle to work this morning. I took the xc forest route to avoid the icy roads... Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk

Svord mini peasant is an okay knife, I occasionally carry one in my pocket and it's great for light tasks. Easy to get a good sharp edge on it. Has a nice rustic charm like an Opinel, but more unique. Go for the plastic handle version, they are about £15. As for the the stop and searches, no...
