Yep, removed my post as it’s your is way better written than mine! Can a private individual get a license to hold, say, a skull in a private collection? I hadn’t thought about it, and I won’t rbh but I am curious how ‘easy’ the licence is to get

Aah yeah pick it up and move it but probably not worth trying to save any of it u less you can get the licence for the school biology department to have it for education?

Removed my post ad the same thing was said further down but with more specific detail

I had a nice collection of skulls I had picked up (mainly birds and rodents) but they got misplaced when we moved house and I have not been able to find them. I still have the fox skeleton, I only have the skull on display. The rest of it is 85% assembled. I shall get it out and finish the...

They will literally strip it bare

I wouldn’t tbh, I would just put something over it if you can that won’t be pulled off by scavengers. If not then pick it up and submerge it in a container of water big enough to hold it, and then leave it for 6months, will stink to high heaven but will leave you with just a skeleton that you...

Wow. I wonder what the stone is?

Actually circling back round how would this be different to using a millbank bag or a sawyer mini and then dropping an Aquatab or other sterilisation tablet in? I quite like the test strips idea though, presumably they just show that the concentration of solution is correct

What are you saying then? I don’t understand your post, perhaps you could elaborate what you mean?

Not sure what you mean by this, are you saying disabled people should not live in high rise buildings, fire risk zones or flood risk zones so that able bodied people shouldn’t have to worry about helping them if there is a fire etc? Based on that, disabled people should only be allowed to live...

The DPF under diesel cars can get extremely hot, my van has one and I monitor the temp (for regens) and it can get up to 700c - park that on long dry grass and it will cause a fire, I am Certain not a lot of people realise

The Tesco near me has taken them off the shelves

I have been using bioethanol in my trangia, I bought it in b+q - works well. I am in the South Downs and have even avoided my trangia the past few weeks, it’s tinder dry everywhere :/

they do look a bit square shouldered, but as its slim it doesnt cause hotspot (not with my usage). Having said that its not a difficult job to sand the shoulders off if personal usage requires it, they are either wood or micarta scales so easy to do by hand, and you wouldnt need to remove much...
