We got FTTP installed just under 2 years ago - BT / Openreach. You do need a socket for the FTTP Box (needs space under socket for adapter) and a 2nd Power Socket for the Hub. (I put in 2 doubles and have used up all plugs with bits and bobs. I ran a network cable to the Hub so that I could...

Welcome. Both are correct and don't forget the soft verges& Army / TA Since moving down from Glasgow. 1. Cyclist hit a pot hole and I found him at side of road. No phone signal so we had to drive up the hill so he could call for help. He was doing the "Scottish Alps Route". Took over an hr...

Welcome. My browser fell off the forum during a cookie incident. To me you are both Local. Big shop either Glasgow or Dumfries. Sorry Ayr, but once you've driven over the forest road it is so easy to by-pass. A wee coffee at Kirkmichael works. Couple times Straiton road has been closed so...

I also had a hatred of capping. 1st the Hand Capper with Mallet Then to 2 lever capper. Eats the top of Glass Bottles... and they can slip. But I bit the bullet and got a stand capper- Fasted Bottling if everything ready to go. Also have a boots barrel with gas and PET Bottles for emergency...

In Scotland "Happy Hours" were scrapped around Sept 2009. Bars got round the legislation by having happy days. Not the 70's show with the Fonze, but drinks sold a set price for a minimum 72 hrs (3 days) So you could have Happy days Sunday, Monday & Tuesday and up prices for the remainder of...

BIAB I was keen to read the BIAB thread (Brew in a Bag) because i'd seen several companies trying to get Hipsters to start brewing beer by just adding water to a bag, wait 7 days and it's party time. Think at one time there was a Munstons wherry, and I see some brew in a can adds on amazon...

Turns out Smugglers was acheers.clapa And Tinsel Toes is still sick... after 6 months

I've had a couple of these. Was the end of the box in the byre and couldn't see how they leaked.

I've a set of PET bottles that I've used since 2017. My lessons learned are. 1. When bottling, always do a final wipe and check cap with a towel. 2. They don't like dish washers. The Bottoms pop out. 3. Easier to use than crown bottles if you don't have a bench capper. 4. Now I have a...

Aye, that is a pain. I bought 5' wide horticultural bubble insulation for a section poly tunner thinking it a UV stable. asad.

Always a panic when your local shop is miles away. Good you got it done :thumbsup: FYI - Caster sugar is just fine Granulated sugar. They do market it as higher quality, but once disolved in water is exactly the same. If your asked for icing or caster sugar and none immedialy available. Use...

One to look forward to. 40 bottles with yellow caps in a box somewhere. Should be ready to try next week :beer1: says the spreadsheet. Perhaps :vomitintoilet:

Unlike Shetlands - Half of which have tufty heads, Give the evil eye if you go near them, sneak off and nest under a bush, and then don't show up for bed time!! Spent over an hour last finding Goldie. Nest with 15 eggs under the bedroom window :mad:

Tinsel Toes - Bought 2 kits las year - Big mistake. "A wintery dark ruby beer with sweet, fruit flavours and hints of Christmas pudding. A smooth fusion of roast malts with rich fruit characterstics ABV - 4.5%" Not what I'd call a Christmas Ale. Had that thin watery taste. No feel. Just a hint...

My Inkbirds operates with loads up to 10A, so you might be pushing the heater load Heater Thermostat - I use a small tube oil heater in my fridge and I just put the thermostate to maximum and control with inkbird. No conflict. Heat Requirement Google Greenhouse heating Calculator to workout...

The question is how big are the plants? Could you pack then into say a small cold frame (inside you greenhouse)? I only have a poly tunnel, so it gets cold. I do have an under soil heating cable for keeping seedling going in the spring. This I cover with a Poly Carbonate cold frame and some...

Can see how easy that would be.:thumbsup:

What is a Zevro? Mr google - Dry food dispencer

That is true. Commercial hens will have laid over 300 Eggs 1st year, by the time you get it, perhaps 450 odd. Some units retained them until the 2nd molt. So yes will be a good home layer and will eat less - being smaller - than some of the "Medium Sized" Sussex / Merans I keep Speckled...
