Re: 101 uses for a toilet tube insert
Czech, I make four little cuts in the bottom and fold them in like on cardboard boxes and on the top I pinch it flat and fold one side over the other. Seems to stay together.

Re: Allotment thefts,how can we prevent?
I do the administration for our allotments and have not really taken it very seriously when people have said they have had things stolen, until the "b___s" stole all my apples!

Re: Disaster no runner beans!!!!!
I think we can blame the weather! On gardeners Q.T. someone asked about their runners and the consensus seemed to be that the bees were late pollinating this year because of the cold and then the flowers don't set if the nights are too hot, which they definitely were a few weeks ago. I actually feel...

Re: Just disappeared up my own exhaust!!!
Sorry to laugh at your post but you could have been talking about me! I never seem to learn my limitations! In the spring it seems I can do anything and every year about now I find out I can't! We just have to remind ourselves that we are lucky to have the enthusiasm to think we can do it all. pbf.

Re: Can I run radiators with my solid fuel Rayburn Royale?
Hi Highhopes, can't help you with the technical side, but can tell you I have a solid fuel Rayburn and run three rediators from it. When it is really cold, it takes a lot of fuel, but I wouldn't be without it. I mostly burn foraged wood on it but to keep it in overnight it needs a shovel full of &qu...

Re: Grass cutting.
Found this very funny! My daughter, divorced and living back home having bought half my house with the sale of her flat, is very useful in the garden, but I am still waiting for her to find the kitchen! She would literally starve without me! pbf.
