No I grow it, supply supermarkets and shops with food. Don't knock us, the nation is only ever 4 meals from anarchy and we all knew we had the food supply and there was not a shortage

Food producer mate. I also go to the supermarket and feed my kids. I know what food costs and I also know what its costs to produce and work closely with distributors Food (whole foods not processed and added to) is incredibly good value. But you can also chose to make it expensive

And a bowl of porridge and honey costs what? 7p?...

They might do but its not usually for lack of cheap affordable food. You can feed yourself on £1.50-2 a day if you are willing to take responsibility for food budgeting. My point is that the "food crisis" is one largely concocted. There is a massive supply of food in the UK - I work in this...

I expect 95% of people could easily have conceivably have concocted a good 10 days meals out of what they had in the freezer and store cupboard

Not really. Look the panic buying was real for sure. Everyone thinks they didn't do any of it but actually pretty much everyone did. I'm not talking about trolleys full of toilet roll but everyone bought a little bit more of this and that and created a panic. There was and is no shortage of...

Why not? It was such a daft thing to say

You can still run outside cant you?

Do you want to sell that planer thicknesser first mikeg?

I liked him. Pricked the balloons of some who got terribly arty farty about sharpening and woodwork and brought it back to what it was - a craft which needs practice.

You'd be surprised the people in country areas who still use coal. Agas etc. I expect they will still be able to buy it via their business. Wood bricketts are brilliant as coal alternative in the woodburner though I have as much free wood as I need

places like powertoomate are the cheapest. Don't buy kits - buy separate.

For woodwork I'd say Makita. Cheap, plentiful and a good range. In my other work I use Milwaukee as well as they are a bit more industrial. To be honest the batteries and chargers are so cheap you can use both

Which begs the question what is the common market doing for Finns? Something is taking the money somewhere given that **** tools in Germany have decent prices and could concievably courier to you

They never have much discounts

So cool. Love to do that. How long did it take?
