IIRC, plants only take in CO2 while they're photosynthesising, so not much use in the evenings or night times.

I seem to remember there was some talk of that happening under the last Labour govt. but nothing ever came of it...

I have 5 bandsaw blades, all brand new, though a couple opened, that won't fit my saw (don't ask!) All 123" / 3124 mm long, three of them 1/4" 6 TPI and two at 3/4" 4 TPI - see photo. £30 the lot, including P+P.

Beat me to it!

You may struggle to find a bench top machine that will handle "large" logs.

If the visitors are that wealthy, then why can they not afford a hotel? They'll be paying hundreds of thousands for the property, plus regular upkeep costs and everything else, when they could get a hotel or B+B holiday for much less. If they still want to buy the property, that's fine, they...

I'm sure we've all done it!

That's why a lot of them tow their own little baby car behind them...:rolleyes:

I agree that a lot of tourists stay in rented cottages, but having in my youth had to rent places, I can assure you those make a difference too. If those homes were rented out on long lets, there wouldn't be the scramble every spring, when "winter lets" suddenly throw out their tenants, causing...

I'll admit that the tax system in this country has always been well over my head, so I won't fight you on that one...

The last bu66er to own them! If you mean the Cornish people, bear in mind that someone who lives here and wants to carry on living here has to buy a replacement house, so has to sell well to afford it. It's a basic law of supply and demand, low supply, high cost. If we want to lower the cost...

Explain your thinking?

You talk a great deal of sense - thank you, I'll be having a look at everything over the next few days. The "clever idea" bit, do you mean the tool? As far as I'm aware, I've never sold one of those to a car detailer, but they do love the abrasives! The tool was for faceplate turners.

As I mentioned earlier, the only collection option I have is Royal Mail. The majority of similar businesses are based in towns, where they have plenty of options for collection, but Evri and their ilk will not collect from me unless I send far more packets than I do now. Maybe I have...

Tourism also costs such places a lot, when you take into account the second home market and how it forces up house prices for the locals. There are villages in Cornwall for instance that have 70% of the houses left empty for the vast majority of the year, just so some greedy fool can have have...

Thank you!

I suspect it's so he can introduce policies to get himself and his friends/family even more stinking rich - or am I too cynical?

The bark on Box is completely different to the piece of wood you have. Might it be Hawthorn? The colour of the wood doesn't look like it in your pics, but lighting can have a big effect...

Yes, I know - just hate having to charge people more. (Just read that back and it sounds sulky - really not meant to, I appreciate your input.) And yes, that is me. I do sell in quite large quantities and that pays well, bizarrely it's almost always to those in the auto business, which is a...

What made you think it was Box? Please say you didn't buy it...
