Porridge, love it! I don't put spice in, except when I add curry powder (rarely!!), but I do put in dried fruit, usually raisins or sultanas, and a splosh of EV olive or sunflower oil. Don't forget a pinch of salt it makes all the difference.

I think it's a Holm oak. quercus ilex

Take three lengths of 3"x2". A tripod would be stable!

Purely a guess! Bend copper tube into a "U" shape, sit over the lip of the pot, to let air into the base of the pot to feed the smouldering wood chips. Use an old oven shelf or wire to hang meat/fish/whatever in the smoke. Cover with lid. If it doesn't work out you'll still have an intact...

I've never tried it! :o I'll have to get a bar and give it a go.

I've heard of this product to deter midges but don't know anyone with first hand experience. Does this really work? And will it keep my skin soft. :rolleyes:

Something else that ticks can give you is TBE, info here http://www.tickalert.org/.
