  2. 9 inch for my stove anything bigger I struggle to get in
  3. my mate stopped milking about a month ago he was getting 18p a lt from the processors and collected every second day. the processors remove all the butterfat and put back the minimum amount for the type of milk you buy, also never got paid on time I do not know if Morrison's process there own milk even if they do it will not benefit all of the countries dairy farmers I still buy glass bottled milk from a local dairy farm door step delivery it costs 57p per pint after the last price increase I was debating whether to stop it and get it from the supermarket and said NO I will support my local dairy farm and my local milkman but it was a near thing when the supermarket was selling 2 lts for eighty odd pence

  6. stove lit this afternoon 64 f according to the weather forecast we could get a night frost this week

  11. only 2 days this month that the stove has not been lit at night just get it going and shut it down (sooty glass) but early this morning there was a slight frost on the lawns and car roofs
  12. watch this space Leeds council have not had anything like this one. Selby has and it has cost them millions £ even stopped the national grid for over 4 years until a agreement could be made. I hope the first world war hanger is going to be left intact I am lead to believe its a listed building along with its ghost stories

  16. I know someone who only uses fire lighters he says 30 pence a box
  17. I take it the fence is extra to the prices quoted as it could entail new boarding at least as when you try and get it off it splits, never mind digging the posts out . nearly a new fence unless you are lucky
  18. I think heat treatment could be a problem as the roots can go down over 12 ft.
  19. stem injection of glyphosate mixed 50/50 but can take three years to get rid
