Good stuff - another nice piece of work. Better go read the blog now, to get an update. Adam

Many happy returns! Adam

Looks like a great spot! Don't envy that clay though. Adam

Mine receives daily updates as far as I can tell. It flashes up to tell me. Adam

But that applies to both organic and non-organic equally surely? Adam

Can you explain that a bit? Despite coming from a family who had a dairy herd, I'm a bit in the dark about how they "force" a cow? Adam

Organic to me means reduced use of pesiticides/chemicals to provide the same item. I have no expectation of it tasting "better", or having better "nutritional" benefits, although I've no doubt some people would argue this. For those specific benefits I think fresh home grown food, havested and...

No never tried it as I've never heard that so I'd be interested in hearing more, nudge nudge Alice? Adam

Bravo! Well done to both of you! Adam

I tried it. Had to paint two coats, at which point, it rather didn't do what it said on the tin. I found the coverage just wasn't good enough. Won't be using it again. Adam

Thats what you said about the 'rat!!! :shock: Adam

Just worth checking if this is the standard width of rolls of insulation? I can't remember offhand if they are 600mm, or 500mm? Anyway, make sure you choose a width that allows you to roll the insulation straight in without cutting. Adam

Well done to all those who entered. =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> Adam

Yes, thats very nice. Adam

If you overhang the roof more, you'll get less drips on the walls which might keep the moisutre out. Also, you will need to think about whether pools of water form near the plynth and moisture is drawn into the concrete base. Given the situation, I'd likely put a drain pipe and gutters to wick...

Welcome to the forum. I can't help either I'm afraid. adam

Very nice pieces. Sounds like you had fun! Adam

I think cutting profiles on it is no problem. In fact, the nice thing is you can climb cut them if you wish. To be honest Tony, as an engineer, its only once you get the thing in your hands, you'll appreciate it for its versitility. I think of it as a milling machine, and use it in that way...
