A Spyderco Mantra 4 even though I keep looking at them. I really don't need one, but I very much want one.

And let me guess, landline gone so can't call the mobile to find it outside (or down the back of the sofa)? I used to have a tracker which I could press to get my phone to ring (the tracker principally being designed for your to use your phone to find the tracker)...but lost the tracker in the...

This. They go somewhat dusty in flavour and also crumble into a right mess.

Wonderfully written Toddy

I am most fearful of a very large rug which was in the same room as these, folded up. Dreading opening that up today. For the slippers, I've vacuumed them thoroughly and have whacked them in the freezer and will then be spraying down with anti-moth spray. I'm rather fond of these slippers, as...

They do seem to be everywhere. Dislike actively killing them though as they're rather pretty creatures.I I'm always concerned about my woolens, and am trying some Formula C+ Advanced spray on closet woolens, hoping it'll keep them at bay.

I have a pair of Mongolian felt slippers which I bought long ago, and for the past couple of years I've not been able to find them. Where I failed in my search, the moths evidently succeeded to the benefit of their offspring. Circa 20 pupae sheaths/cocoons (made of digested wool?) and a few...

I made it clear I was referring to dosage critical medications in my very first sentence you quoted.

I see. So you're aware, the stockpiling prohibition is to actually ease supply. If it's not in place, some companies intentionally withhold supply to create (further) scarcity and (further) drive the price up. It is a very good thing to prevent. You as an individual are not capable of...

I really feel for you Woodygirl, not a pleasant situation to be in. Do be really careful with the pill splitting though and don't do it on dosage-critical medications as the cutting accuracy is almost certainly not going to be good enough. For your current uses it is probably fine though. Can...

Much appreciated

Could you say where from? I've bought bungee in from the likes of eBay with 'UK source' but it's been apparent that it was actually an AliExpress dropshipper! Quality was rubbish (not that I'm saying it all is from there, just that lot lost it's elasticity right quick).

Yes I had one, before I knew about Leatherman and Victorinox Spirits. Paid a princely sum from a local shop, thinking it was the bee's knees. Ignorance can sometimes be bliss! The price on tools like this have thankfully come down over the years, and are now at a much more appropriate price...

With Velux you can get Velux external roller blinds which go inside the frame. You fit them yourself with a few screws. Absolute game changer. Link for info, but I shopped around: https://www.veluxblindsdirect.co.uk/products/awning-blinds Edit: I mention these as I was looking at getting the...

If you stick them on the outside they'll be even more effective
