Baked BeansWe made our first homemade baked beans today using an Amish recipe. Result.......... not bad, in fact, quite impressed by the flavour but although the texture was okay we will extend the bean soaking and pressure canning time. The recipe needs tweaking a bit for our taste but it does mean no more bu...
Re: Tasty soup recipes?I have always found that a good curry or chili tastes better the day after it has been made. No idea why!
Re: ... and so it begins When profits are concerned people are apt to greenwash. I can only agree with your statement I would have thought that using planning controls to give 15 minute cities would be a good thing. From the WEF website (who are behind this concept), "They are mainly a fit for affluent urban neighbourhoods...
Re: Another cracker jokeWhat’s the difference between a poorly dressed man on a tricycle and a well-dressed man on a bicycle?
Re: ... and so it beginsI read this previously regarding deep sea mining. https://www.wri.org/insights/deep-sea-mining-explained The "Green" revolution is in many ways "not" what it is made out to be and if Governments want to force people into buying electric cars then the lithium, scandium and cobalt required for the bat...
Re: Shall I or shan`t I?Firstly, I hope your check up went well. Secondly, it is never easy deciding on getting a new dog. My BSD died when seventeen.

I know that is bad!!
Re: Fool me onceI must admit I am not a TV viewer and can only last the full distance through certain films but my Lovely Lady has just started watching this series and is thoroughly enjoying it, one of the best she has seen in a long while.

Re: Learning Guitar Yes, if you don't have an incentive to practise (e.g.a class next week) it tends to get left. The problem I have here is there are no classes etc. anywhere near us (our choice to live out in the sticks) also we work to daylight hours so it is often gone 10pm before we sit down and in winter (now) I...
Re: Painting/waterproofing Breeze blocksI have been trying to locate a PVA glue here for years but no-one seems to know what it is, probably it is lost in translation and they use a completely different term. There is a thing called "grund" here that is meant to seal aerated concrete blocks which is the term used here for breeze blocks. P...
Painting/waterproofing Breeze blocksA question regarding painting breeze blocks (as they are called in the UK). Can you just paint them with watered down masonry paint to seal them then add a couple of normal coats afterwards or is there a special sealant to coat them with first before painting. Internet is as conflicting as usual and...
