  1. I've not watched the link but this came to mind.
  2. Or as a stop gap until it warms up buy a dehumidifier, sticking plaster solution but removes moisture and adds a small amount of heat. A hygrometer on the wall also helps, cooking and showers do add a good 20% to a house. Maybe get a cheap thermal plugin for your phone to see cold bridging.
  3. If you're selling woodchip you may fall into the planning permission will be required category especially with an increase in traffic. You will need a telehandler, possible with a tractor loader but lifting height and bucket size make for very slow loading. Plus chip has to be clean, preferably screened. From what I've read you're problem is green waste, maybe buy a zago ecogreen and make a deal with the farmer. (Plenty of Farmer P videos). I looked into a lot of this myself, whilst I am a do everything by the book or I'll get dobbed in mentality. Ended up processing logs, using the chip for field restoration & saving for a zago as it's considered compost once churned up.
  4. Bluebells are the plant equivalent of cockroaches, might set them back a year or so but they'll be back sure enough.
  5. PIV sounds like snake oil, turning a damp house into a colander and wasting money on heat. To prove you concept reverse the flow on a bathroom extractor fan.
  6. Think you might need to post your current size and length of chain for any help 🙂.
  7. Remind me again how much that wallpaper was per roll?, £840 a roll.
  8. So what is the point of a smart meter if it isn't smart?. We both know it's all obfuscated bs, but atleast use what you got instead of letting a country sit in the actual dark.
  9. Someone's garden with a stump grinder/forestry flail in the background?
  10. One certainly has to wonder, you've got all these swimming pools threatening to close due to gas prices. Surely fit an electric heater and use everything for a derisory few pence a kw or export it to the continent. Same with schools and other places, use it all, surely with all the smart meters it's easy to do.
  11. Plus you have to factor that against the legally binding Co2 reduction for Paris or keyoto, yes I know it's all smoke, mirrors and Bs of the highest order. But it's still a shocking amount of money.
  12. Jebus, it sounds like we have a furry!.
  13. Time to wheel out Shirley Manson to sing your answer, the world is not enough!.
  14. Aren't they sheep that eat seaweed?.
  15. Cmon I'd rather Boris had the cash than let loose with anything else Lord Bamford manufacturers!. Suppose a fast track would be ULEZ exempt tho, few steps up from a Boris bike.
  16. Maybe he was a little early to do a Margret Thatcher style photo opportunity?. It's definitely a head scratcher with us sending tanks that don't use the same main gun ammunition as the Germans Leopard that Poland has plenty of.
  17. Am I showing my age when having to explain Little Britain?.
  18. Are you sure it wasn't hours wasted making clear ice for all those parties ?. Coupled with hours researching the correct ways of making alcoholic jelly ?.
  19. They do increase the allowance yearly, but at the same time it just stokes artificial inflation.
  20. It was a running gag where the guy in the meme had to apologise usually for some sexual news story. One of them was something like a public toilet, pants down etc etc
  21. No your subject is an automatic you need to pay them more, which still doesn't fix your argument that people aren't payed enough. Just because you move the threshold ie pay more, it fails to fix the not having enough which at 40k is laughable. So that leaves the option of changing the system to not pay benefit, which you would then mean people aren't payed enough yet again.
  22. Did the lawyer also trip whilst his pants were down, or something like that.
  23. I've not said anything about benefits, I've claimed for zero and hopefully never will. I'm saying just paying more achieves nothing, maybe I was brought up to ask for nothing and expect nothing.
  24. Well that's assuming your partner isn't atleast working part time. Even if you say 15-20k part time, plus the 40k isn't a bad earning for a household if you have kids. You can't just have 50k as a minimum wage, false minimum wage just distorts the economy. And still would fail to achieve your goal. A loaf of own brand supermarket bread at 50k would be £8.
  25. Yeap that's the one, it's the same as the one on HETAS site 🙂. Valiant Moisture Meter | Colour Change SHOP.HETAS.CO.UK Valiant Moisture Meter Colour Change
