Not suggesting it's a replacement for medical treatment for severe or very large burns but my 'go to' for most 'household' burns is Sudacrem cream ... yes ... the stuff for a baby's bum when (s)he has nappy rash. I have a small tub in the kitchen and another bathroom. It's good for minor burns, sun...

I've used haybox/pressure/slow cookers for years, use them all now but don't get into a panic about cost, do your homework. 1 Unit of electricity rounded up is 30p My kettle is 3kw so 3 units per hour turned on and running =90p per hour 500ml cold water to boil 1 minute, so cost of your brew 1.5p E...

Would the haybox idea cook a joint, because presumably it would not be simmering. Not something I've done personally but from what I've read and looking at YT video...

October ’22 Energy Price Cap – Cooking with a Slow Cooker Compared to a Thermal Cooker/Hay Box (Costs using the 'new' October '22 Price Cap are for direct debits.

Inset wood burner/multi fuel stove being installed next week. Bought 2 cu mtrs of wood & a ton of heat logs + some kindling - should last at least 2-3 months (hopefully longer - I haven't had a log burner before so I don't know how much fuel I will need + it depends on how cold the winter is. Re...
