What Preps are you doing this week? Part 9

[ForgeCorvus]

Arzosah: Good find, Frugal is a prep.
I've got one just like it...... And a newer 'tinny' version.
They take the Bistro stove cans, the ones that look like aerosols.

Check the springs, make sure the sled moves freely and hoover the ceramic bit.
Have a trial burn outside and you should be good to go.

Thanks jansman!

Definitely fire up outside as Jamsman says, the smell of burning dust will be fierce for a couple of minutes

Goneback to winter here with snow. Glad I spent money on wool for next winter now

ForgeCorvus, I didn't see you there, thanks for that too. I haven't done anything to it yet - I'm handsewing **faints** lengths of thin cheesecloth to make a net curtain for my bedroom. I've had it for 20 - 30 years, it has a self pattern I absolutely love, I'm doing well with it. Vaccing is a great tip for the fire!

Two finance preps:
- I watched Martin Lewis on itv this morning, reiterating advice not to move from standard rate on leccy and gas, there are no fixes cheaper than the standard rate.
- this one might be tricky. I've realised I have just enough time to sell some freebie shares before the end of the financial year. I'd like to re-buy and shelter them in an isa, but I've paid tax on them for long enough, I'm going to do it this morning. Luckily, they're managed online. I'll report back, because this is a big one!

Another wood delivery, should be the final one for next season.





Hand held mini battery chainsaw. I can't bend over/raise my arms sends my BP either up or down so this should assist.



Safety Glasses for above.

As we get older,these issues become problematic don’t they? My blood pressure doesn’t allow me to bend over too long either. Sounds like you have found a workaround there.

Hope it works, it's small enough to stash in the car too.
