    You couldn't make it up.

    I’ve followed a young couple along the M62 who were driving a VW Polo at 25mph. It looked like they had just come from IKEA Warrington branch, as they each had one arm out of the window holding a double mattress on the roof of the car. Similarly I once followed a Ford Ka on the M56 with a...

    You couldn't make it up.

    I was watching the BBC News when a feature came on about Heineken, the World’s second largest brewer, ceasing operations in Russia. At the end of the article my better half said who is the World’s largest brewer. I replied I don’t know for certain, but I would guess it’s a toss up between...

    Wood burners

    You’d save a few quid if you moved the stove to the left on your sketch and only had a straight flue. The 45 degree elbows used to be expensive. If you find a stove with a 5inch outlet, then the flue is cheaper than 6inch diameter flue. Twinwall flue is more expensive than single skin, but it...

    Cheap long term wine storage?

    I came to the same conclusion about not making red wine from kits, hence the offer of the bottles. I’ve previously made: Wilko 6 bottle red, California Connoisseur 6 bottle Shiraz, 30 bottle Cellar 7 Malbec, 4 different WineXpert £50 reds, They all have the same bubble gum flavour/smell, which...

    Cheap long term wine storage?

    If your local Indian does Cobra or the likes in the large bottles then they’ll normally give you as many 660ml bottles than you can carry. I’ve always found that if you are on the scrounge, then it’s best done face to face, rather than over the phone. In terms of asking pubs for bottles. Pre...
