    Faux Fivers

    I had Scottish note which was rejected by a shop so rather than keep trying to spend it I paid it into the bank.

    In need of a haircut.

    I played a rastafari wizard in D&D. He could've looked like this!

    You have to wonder

    I've found that folding the leaf and placing it between your molars means you can crush the hairs without getting stung but it's a very dry, raspy leaf. Eating one is like eating sandpaper so I wouldn't fancy eating them for half an hour. That said, it's amazing what you can accomplish with the...

    Joe Robinet had a serious accident

    Joe can swap notes with Junkyard Fox on living with a barely functioning hand. Wishing them all a swift and lasting recovery.

    Voluntarily handing in a large blade to the UK police

    To answer the second part of your original question: you'll have a very hard/impossible time cutting it up with a junior hacksaw.

    Forest schools are a failure.

    That was my experience of the scouts around the late 1990s. Basically just playing ball games in a village hall.

    The other half - Handles.

    I've carved my Opinel out of necessity because back when I was a reckless teen I broke the tip off so the blade rests further in and conceals the nail nick. Modifying SAKs? There's not much meat on the scales to play with but people certainly fit their own custom scales.

    The other half - Handles.

    By and large I prefer something pretty simple in terms of shape. One of my favourites is the handle on the Brisa Kephart which I have never felt the desire to change. Other favourites are the Camillus Bushcrafter and also the classic puuko style. Funny you should mention the SAK because I've...

    How do businesses still get this so utterly wrong?

    YOYTi. (Why titanium?)

    I put together a pot, mug, frying pan and meths stove combo in SS and it was heavy enough to convince me to switch to Ti. The difference is huge. However, if you're going down the lightweight route it only really makes sense to marry it up with other lightweight gear. Expense/price/value is...

    I dont know this tree

    Sounds very much like elm. Their leaves are like sandpaper.

    Green energy :D

    It's easy to get lost in the "wow that looks clever" and lose track of the bottom line, ie what's the cost of the energy it generates across its lifespan?

    Your picture of the day...

    Fly tipped rubbish down my road. -_-

    The new breed of spammer - Use of AI - example

    Is it the passive voice? I never got to grips with linguistics but no one really talks like that, even me after a skinful.

    Government emergency website

    An extra header tank or 2 in the loft might be the neatest solution for extra water storage, with all necessary allowances for the extra weight of course.

    Po-tay-toes.

    The blue mushroom trays are good for this. Place the potatoes so they are not touching and the occasional rotter shouldn't take the rest with it. Use any damaged ones first.

    Car sleeping?

    Vehicle prices have risen such in recent years that I find what I want and what I want to pay no longer overlap on the Venn diagram. The Ford Galaxy comes damn close though, being nearly van sized and available with a thrifty diesel engine.

    What are you growing?

    I've got 100 elephant garlic plants looking promising. Won't be long until harvest time.
