Has anyone got a good recipe for home made yoghurt please? I've tried 6 different ways off the internet, cook books and my own efforts but non turn out as good as the shop bought yeo yog.

....... Not on your nelly !! Daft sod me was cleaning the coup out yesterday morning and left the nest box open while I went for some new straw. Anyway, on the route to the greenhouse for the bag of straw the kettle replaced the thoughts in my head and I went in the house ot make a brew. Then I sat ...

technically yes you can get into trouble if someone complains. If your house is mortgaged then you could get a warning off them or even in an extreme have your mortgage called in but that is an extreme. probably you would get a few £50 letters first just so they could make some money. If rented then...

I garden on a no dig no weed basis but the weeds still come up so I have to pull them out so I guess it's only a no dig gardening approach however the original book I read was no dig no weed organic gardening and this espoused the use of black plastic sheeting on allotments which I tried for a year ...

Thanks for thewell wishes, I'll be back more often. GA, right hand is still crap 16 weeks after the op.

She can't understand how it's happened but I also didn'r tell her I fell ...

As a cyclist you need to be brave and confident. It also helps to have a good pair of lungs and a few profanities in your vocabulary and that's just to keep the stupid car drivers at bay. Of course you need to build up your confidence but getting on and off the bike when you see traffic will not hel...

From my perspective I'd say yes it would be a good idea to have a system that can be added to and extended so you don't need "ugly IBC's all over the wall" :iconbiggrin: (I love IBC's by the way). However.... you may need to think about how you will get this water back from the hiding plac...

I don't believe in Moderators. They are a construct to keep the prolatariat in check. :icon_smile: I have a big red pen, can I be a mod please :iconbiggrin: I go on a prepping site amongst others and virtually all of them ban politics and religeon for obvious reasons as outlined in GA 's post but p...

Another 1.98 pounds off this week but all that means is that i'm now only 6 pounds heavier than the 1st of Jan this year. Still it's coming off so I suppose I should be gratefull.
