If I come across a cold box free or near free I will try it although haven't decided on the insulation material yet. It has to be free of...

Re: Kilner/glass jars for dried food storage?
Someone asked me to put a wanted on freecycle for Kilner. 1 person gave me 25 the old ones that have a rubber ring, glass stopper sealed by metal screw down lid. I decided I was having 10. Then I bought I think 16 large ones with 2 cups tea and 2 pieces a very nice cake for £6.90. Always worth check...

Re: Home Security Plan
A few years back I was trying to find a cheap flight to the US. It was bucketing down outside and had been for a few days it was about 2 am. I heard a noise outside paid no attention as I was busy on the computer. Most scum are not likely to be out thieving in that weather? Every now and again I hea...

I have noticed that the rear garden has (west facing) full sun by 11am maximum in the summer. Is it possible I could generate enough electricity to make it profi...
