But all in all I think we might be getting somewhere with this crazy project! “Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.” - Robert Anton Wilson. It sounds like a great project! And I can imagine it's a real struggle at times... but it's those moments of realisation and wonder that make ...

It's all become about the Carbon Economy these days. It's bonkers! most of the policies that seem to be happening regard the ability for government and multinationals to trade "carbon credits" rather than actually do anything that would be effective.

I cycle 7 miles each way to work - it's not bad at all, I've been doing this for about a year and a half now, my work mates think I am bonkers (especially when it is raining / or winter) - but once you get into it it's totally fine. I would consider cycling further - I'd reckon up to 15 miles would ...

a couple on our allotment rotorvated their plot .... bad idea with the horsetail!

"non-toxic to the environment, but unpleasant for dandelions" Dandelions are a "weed" that has some good uses !! the leaves for green salads, the root for making drinks (two name a few) most weeds are just things in the wrong place at the wrong time :iconbiggrin: But seriously t...

can anyone tell me how long game birds have to 'hang' for. As you can see I am a novice at this sort of thing....... this is totally a matter of taste. Personally I don't like my game hung for too long as I don't like a too "gamey" taste. I think the longest for me (for a pheasant) is abo...

ah this looks like a good day out, I live in oxford so not too far to get to swindon!

excellent.

nettle pesto - lovely stuff.

lovely taste - but don't eat too much - as it's a diuretic.

hello, I plan on doing this, I've recently moved to living on the water, and there are loads of Signal Crayfish near where I moor. seeing as I will regularly be at my mooring, then I plan to catch them on a regular basis. interesting reading the report about increasing the population if the larger c...

ah excellent, like the original poster I am on the look out for a push mower!

Yeah, they're OK. When I was a nipper, we used to call them bread and cheese. No idea why. another name for the Hawthorn is the "Bread and Cheese Tree". This refers to the young leaves and leaf buds which country folk would eat straight from the tree. They have a sweet nutty flavour and c...
