    Are you a blood donor?

    I'm A+ and I go when time will allow. If I'm not working and I can get over I'll pop in, however I've been turned away twice due to not having an appointment and them being busy. I'm on my 24th donation and want my next badge (25).

    Any bikers here???

    The bike was bought with SWMBO's blessing, she wants me to get back out on 2 wheels. We - yes both of us are up for a bit of adventure, I would be happy to 'rough it' on our trips but SWMBO would more than likely prefer a hotel/B&B, I can see it taking over the costs. As we gain in confidence...

    Any bikers here???

    Yes, the slabby took the front of the taxi off, I did a somersault over the top and bent my legs the wrong way and fractured my heel. Apart from that I got away unskathed... I also managed to break my little finger somehow which pi$$ed me off more than it should of...

    Any bikers here???

    Well I'm back on a proper motorbike after a 2 1/2 year break after I went over a taxi. I got myself a cheap (£400) Yamaha Diversion 600, a few minor repairs/tweaks and it's MOT'd I am waiting on a top box arriving and will be using the bike for a bit of touring/camping with the missus (if I can...

    Leeds Whisky Festival, anyone been?, going?

    I was there at the 4.00 till 8.00 session, I left early as I was getting a little tipsy! Well worth the money!!! The best table IMHO was #1 (Berrys).

    Keeping ramsons

    I made a load of ramson pesto and bagged it up in small portion sized bags and froze them. I can now enjoy ramsons all year round ;-) I also have some washed ramson leaves frozen in a bag too awaiting another recipe...

    Urban survival...

    I bet both of you could tell some great stories of your time on the streets. A book on urban survival could be an idea for you both maybe?

    Urban survival...

    This has come up before, how would you manage in a strange town/city with no cash, friends or contacts? This is the no friends, no money, no hope scenario. Just your wits, good looks to rely upon...

    three hungry boys - what a waste of time

    Do you reckon they could do a similar show to 3HB (no money, etc) in a major city like London? I doubt it. They would be living in cardboard boxes by the end of the series!!!

    Apples wanted in Leeds

    I'm on the lookout for as many apples as I can lay my hands on. Any type will do and the condition doesn't have to be perfect either as they are going to be getting crushed/blitzed into juice hopefully to make cider. If my efforts are successful I'm sure you will be rewarded for your...

    Birch Kuksa

    Lovely bit of carving there!!! It looks quite sturdy and tactile. How thin can the walls be on a kuksa? If I ever get the chance to make one (if I come across a suitable piece of wood) I'd try to make it a bit lighter by thinning the walls a bit. How far can you go before you start running...
